Event-driven architectures (EDA) have been a cornerstone in designing cloud systems that are future-proofed, scalable, resilient, and sustainable in nature. EDA is interested in generation, capture, and response to events and nothing more, not even in traditional systems of request-response. The paradigm is most suitable to systems that require high decoupling, elasticity, and fault tolerance. 

In this article, I’ll be discussing the technical details of event-driven architectures, along with snippets of code, patterns, and practical strategies of implementation. Let’s get started!
