Event-driven architecture (EDA) is on the rise more than ever before. There are alot of considerations to be taken into account before building event-driven real-time applications such as documentation, code generation, governance, and API definitions to name a few. REST APIs has OpenAPI and tooling around it to better enhance using and adopting a synchronous RESTful architecture, but what about asynchronous Event APIs?

The AsyncAPI specification allows developers to define event-driven applications, while the Spring Cloud Stream framework allows for easier implementation of Event-Driven microservices. In this talk, we will show how these two technologies make a power couple helping developers go from Design to Code in a swift swing and how messaging APIs and protocols including but not limited to: RabbitMQ, Kafka, and Solace PubSub+, are abstracted using the Spring Cloud Stream Binders.

This talk will also include a live hands-on demo using Java, Spring Cloud Stream binder for Solace, and the AsyncAPI java-spring-cloud-stream-template.
