Is there a reason you can't just use HTTP and JSON?
A lot of the stuff you read about microservices leads down the path of thinking you need to operate at Netflix or Google scale.

Messages for Communicating Between Microservices using Laravel
Sorry if this sounds kind of bookish. But, this is the first time I’m going to do something like this in a project.
So, in a project I'm currently planning, I am building a microservice-driven e-Commerce web application. As I’m doing my research, I learned there is a need for messaging between service applications (bounded contexts in Domain Driven Design terms). The resources I’ve been reading mention that there are ”messaging frameworks” available to help in fulfilling such requirements.
I was wondering if Laravel supported this functionality, as I am considering using laravel for my architectural layer. Or is there another library that is best suited for this?
Thanks.

@topvillas It’s mostly for learning purposes. And, to make it easier to scale out the application down the line. But primarily the former. :)

Well, in that case you might want to look at this ...

If you want to follow the pub/sub model there are many providers. I use AWS and they have several SDKs that integrate easily with Laravel https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-php/
