Navigating complexity in event-driven architectures: A domain-driven approach

Organizations today face significant challenges in adapting quickly to technological advancements and shifting consumer demands. This struggle often leads to decreased innovation and agility, hindering business growth and competitiveness.

Event-driven architecture (EDA) offers a powerful solution that extends beyond the traditional roles of producers, consumers, and brokers. It facilitates the creation of dynamic architectures that evolve, empower teams, and enhance agility, enabling businesses to thrive in rapidly changing environments.

In this talk, we’ll explore how complexity can obscure the potential of event-driven architecture (EDA). By examining EDA through the lens of Domain-Driven Design, we'll discuss how it contributes to the growth of evolutionary architectures and the critical guardrails and governance strategies needed to manage complexity effectively.

Whether you’re refining your current architecture or embarking on a new journey, this session will provide actionable insights into controlling complexity and maximizing the potential of event-driven architectures within a domain-driven context.

Beyond producers and consumers: Avoiding common issues with event-driven architectures

Scaling event-driven architectures can be challenging and many companies struggle with schemas, discoverability, and best practices. However, with the right approach, it is possible to overcome these challenges and establish a solid foundation for your event-driven architecture growth within your organizations.

This talk will explore the advantages of event-driven architectures and common obstacles associated with their natural growth within organizations. It will provide you with a range of patterns, examples, and resources that will empower you to prepare for and conquer these challenges.

Following this talk, you will be equipped with patterns and resources to help your teams scale and construct event-driven architectures within your organization.
