Event-Driven Microservices: What Enterprise Architects Need To Know
Event-driven microservices give you the power to quickly create and modify components in a way that offers bottom-line business value, which is mission critical in a world where your competitors are a click away and time to market is everything.
What’s not to love, right?
But the speed with which you develop components is just one piece of the puzzle.
- How quickly can you integrate them with the rest of your system?
- How completely can you embrace innovative new techniques and technologies?
In my new whitepaper for architects, I explain the benefits of combining event-driven architecture and microservices and how decomposing applications admittedly makes life a little more… interesting.
Breaking monolithic applications into distributed components introduces many complexities and challenges associated with a set of incorrect assumptions referred to as The Fallacies of Distributed Computing.
Simply put, many developers assume that the network used to establish communications between components is homogenous, reliable, real-time, unchanging, etc.… Read the rest
