The Think Event-Driven Masterclass gives your teams the skills and shared understanding they need to successfully model, design, and operationalize event-driven architecture (EDA).
Through a mix of guided instruction, hands-on exercises, and real-world use cases, participants learn how to reimagine integrations, translate business workflows into event-driven models, and apply Solace’s proven Think Event-Driven methodology to accelerate adoption. The masterclass is available as one 5–8 hour intensive session or a 2-day workshop.
Who It’s For
No matter your role, the masterclass helps you speak the same language, plan the same way, and move faster together.
- Application & Integration Architects who need a deeper understanding
of event-driven patterns, interactions, and design. - Product Owners & Decision Makers who want to lead EDA initiatives,
evaluate use cases, and build cross-team alignment.
What You’ll Achieve
Align Your Teams Around a Shared EDA Foundation
Give architects, developers, and product owners a common language and mental model for event-driven integration. Participants learn core concepts, patterns, and terminology—like event types, payloads, and the E=NVP model—helping cross-functional teams collaborate more effectively and make consistent design decisions.
Modernize Legacy Workflows into Scalable Event-Driven Models
Through guided exercises, teams break down real business processes (like Order-to-Cash) and redesign them as event-driven flows. This builds practical skills in modeling events, defining interactions, and identifying where real-time responsiveness creates business value—setting the foundation for modern, decoupled architecture.
Design Event, Topic and Domain Structures that Scale
Participants learn how to map business domains to events, design scalable topic hierarchies, and apply Solace’s 4-step methodology (Liberate → Stream & Filter → React → Democratize) to guide consistent, enterprise-ready architecture. These capabilities help organizations reduce integration complexity and build more governable, reusable systems.
Accelerate EDA Adoption with Clear, Actionable Next Steps
Teams leave with a repeatable approach, best practices, and hands-on experience that builds confidence to take the next step—whether designing new event flows, extending an event mesh, or implementing governance and CI/CD workflows. Combined with optional platform demos and follow-on learning paths, the masterclass becomes a launchpad for long-term EDA success.
What’s Covered
The masterclass is designed to familiarize teams with the entirety of the Think Event-Driven methodology, shown here:
Within that objective, each masterclass is tailored to the participating team and their goals, but they typically include:
- Event-driven foundations and why integration needs a rethink
- Event types, payloads, and design principles
- Modeling real-world use cases using the E=NVP approach
- Designing topic hierarchies aligned to business domains
- Applying Solace’s event-driven methodology
- Designing and governing event, topic, and application flows
- Getting started with the Solace platform
- Demos of relevant workflows, integrations, products and agentic AI capabilities
