Hello,
I have the following requirement from an asp.net mvc application.
User has the option to print , which will execute a print to different formats. I want to make the print process asynchronous.For that I want to utilize the service broker.
After going through some blogs etc, I have an understanding of how to use it and I wanted to confirm my understanding.
Here it is at a high level:
1: create a request message and send to service broker
2: Use the service broker external activator to call a web api
3: The web api will do the print task and store the printed document to the DB
4: Finish service broker task
5: On UI when the user visits the page again, they will see the option to download the document
Is this a good approach? Any example on how to use external activator with an MVC application?
