+# Request and Reply
+
+Request and Reply is one of the most used messaging pattern and offers a two-way communication pattern to exchange messages. The most known form being REST and HTTP where you make synchronous requests over a single channel/path. 
+
+In the event driven world it can quickly become complex as often there are no single channel and can be more dynamic.
+
+In request and reply there are always two parties, the requester, making the request and the replier, in charge of delivering the response to the request according to how it's expected.

+As you can see both take leverage on the same definitions where only the `receive` and `send` action keywords change. You could also use traits for operations and references to simplify the definitions.
+
+## Patterns
+
+Through request and reply there are multiple patterns that are slightly different from the simple request and reply we see in HTTP.
+
+### Dynamic response based on request meta information
+One pattern is where the response needs to happen dynamically based on meta information in the request.
+
+Locations for this could be part of the headers, message payload or parameter.
+
+<table>
+<tr>
+<th> Payload </th> 
+<th> Headers </th>
