I am doing a presentation soon(ish) around “Event Driven Microservices” (a lightning talk) which is made hard because of the time limit.

The goal is to introduce events and derivatives of events. Why events are the source of truth for all software. Below I dump my thoughts so I can come back to them later.

Final Example

(11-11-2018) Today, discussing with a friend, I think I came up with the case-study I’m gonna go with.

Advantages of Microservices

Explain the advantages of microservices.

  • Programming language independence
  • Scale the bottlenecks

Advantages of Event Triggered Architectures

Explain the advantages of event-triggered systems.

  • Fire and forget type of architecture
  • IoT is like that
    • Publish/Subscribe
    • Any component can pick up the data it needs

Final story

I’ll start with a brief overview of Microservices and event triggered systems.

  • A recommendation engine with a broken algorithm.
  • Events are used to recommend the next video to play.
  • The algo is messed up and recommends a certain medicine to all the male viewers OR there’s an update that we think the customers will be more happy with.
  • In an event triggered system
    • deploy new recommendation service
    • events get replayed in the new service and better recommendations come up
