Evolutionary microservices

beyond event-driven

What does this mean?

Microservices are powerful but come with challenges. One of these challenges is to get the design exactly right. We strongly believe in an evolutionary approach to microservices: start with a monolith and evolve this monolith into microservices when the need exceeds the additional burden.

To accomplish this, applications need to go beyond event-driven. While events are essential, they are not sufficient on their own. We categorize message types into three categories: Events, Commands, and Queries. Each type serves a specific purpose, carries certain expectations, and possesses unique routing characteristics.

This approach achieves location transparency, enabling seamless migration between monoliths and microservices without compromising the core business logic.
