Event-Driven Systems

Overview

Events decouple producers from consumers and enable independent scaling.

Event shape

{
  "type": "order.created",
  "id": "evt_123",
  "occurredAt": "2024-01-01T10:00:00Z",
  "payload": {
    "orderId": "ord_456"
  }
}

Notes

I will add guidelines for when to adopt events.
