Did event sourcing not turn out how you thought it would? Luis explored successes and failures with over 200 event sourcing practitioners, and he knows why many became disillusioned after shipping to production.

Event sourcing relies on projections, read models, sagas, and workflows, for which the event sourcing community has been saying, for years:

- "Just" read your SQL based event store
- "Just" use a queuing system like RabbitMQ or Kafka
- "Just" use NoSQL as your event store and stream from there
- "Just" use a specialized event store

But every “just” comes with complexities. And event sourcing practitioners take months, or years, to "just" get it right.

This hands on lab shows you why the problem is so complex, and gives you the techniques you need to solve the hardest problems in event sourcing without losing your sanity.
