AxonIQ and Lemon Companies are hosting a Tech Talk around Event Sourcing, Domain Driven Design and the Axon Framework. The session, led by expert Allard Buijze will give you the opportunity to learn about the latest concepts and techniques for building complicated, scalable software systems to test out yourself. This event will take place at The Clubhouse in Kontich, where complimentary food & drinks will be provided.
Event-Driven Microservices - Beyond the Fairy Tale
Our applications need to be faster, better, bigger, smarter, and more enjoyable to meet our demanding end-users needs. In recent years, the way we build, run, and operate our software has changed significantly. We use scalable platforms to deploy and manage our applications. Instead of big monolithic deployment applications, we now deploy small, functionally consistent components as microservices. Problem. Solved. Right?
Unfortunately, for most of us, microservices, and especially their event-driven variants, do not deliver on the beautiful, fairy-tale-like promises that surround them.
In this session, Allard will share a different take on microservices. We will see that not much has changed in how we build software, which is why so many "microservices projects" fail nowadays. What lessons can we learn from concepts like DDD, CQRS, and Event Sourcing to help manage the complexity of our systems? He will also show how message-driven communication allows us to focus on finding the boundaries of functionally cohesive components, which we can evolve into microservices should the need arise.
