Intent

Tolerant Reader is an integration pattern that helps creating robust communication systems. The idea is to be as tolerant as possible when reading data from another service. This way, when the communication schema changes, the readers must not break.

Applicability

Use the Tolerant Reader pattern when

• the communication schema can evolve and change and yet the receiving side should not break
