One of the trickiest problems with microservices is dealing with data as it becomes spread across many different bounded contexts. An event architecture and event-streaming platform like Kafka provide a respite to this problem. Event-first thinking has a plethora of other advantages too, pulling in concepts from event sourcing, stream processing, and domain-driven design. _x000D_

  • Manage bounded contexts for data fields that overlap
  • Use event architectures that apply streaming technologies like Kafka to address the challenges of distributed data
