If you think about the events in an event sourcing application as nodes, in a graph of causes and consequences, can your event sourcing application build any arbitrary graph?

This might sound like an innocent academic question, but it is another way of asking:

It turns out the answer is a big NO. Event sourcing cannot be used in many domains.

Come to this talk, to find out the type of applications you cannot implement with event sourcing, the implications of this limitation, and what you can do about it.
