Event-Driven Microservices - Not Just About Events

Explore the complexities of event-driven microservices in this conference talk from GOTO Berlin 2018. Delve into the potential pitfalls of using events for component communication and learn how they can inadvertently introduce implicit coupling. Discover three key reasons why components need to communicate and how understanding these reasons can help select appropriate routing patterns. Gain insights from Allard Buijze, creator of Axon Framework, as he challenges common misconceptions and offers a fresh perspective on building truly decoupled microservices architectures. Examine how to avoid creating distributed big balls of mud and why simply adding more technologies isn't the solution. Learn to step back and critically evaluate your approach to event-driven systems for more effective microservices design.
