Async APIs and Event Contracts
Design event-driven systems with AsyncAPI specifications
Design event-driven systems with AsyncAPI specifications
Scale work distribution with multiple independent consumers competing for work, and broadcast events to multiple subscribers.
TL;DR
Record important business occurrences that others should know about
TL;DR
Store the complete history of changes as immutable events rather than storing only the current state.
Use event logs (Kafka, Pulsar) for real-time data integration
TL;DR
Master message queues, publish-subscribe, and event streams. Choose the right pattern for your asynchronous communication.
Define a one-to-many dependency where when one object changes state, all dependents are notified
Ensure reliable event publishing and delivery with outbox, inbox, and CDC patterns.
Every inter-service communication is synchronous, creating blocking dependencies and reducing resilience.
Simplify asynchronous I/O by letting the framework manage event notifications and completion handlers.
How to choose and combine programming paradigms per component to meet quality attributes like latency, correctness, and evolvability.
Multiplex I/O events across many connections using a single-threaded event-driven architecture.
Event-driven compute, auto-scaling, and pay-per-execution with no infrastructure management
TL;DR
Choose between synchronous request-response and asynchronous messaging. Understand coupling, latency, and availability trade-offs.
Master event-driven integrations: webhooks for server-initiated callbacks, signing for security, and handling idempotency and retries.
