Part 2: Components of Event-Driven Architecture

In this part, we will begin and complete a journey of transforming MallBots from a synchronous application into an asynchronous application. We will introduce and refactor the application using domain events, event sourcing, and messaging. This part will also provide an introduction to and hands-on experience of dealing with eventual consistency and other complications that developers must contend with when developing event-driven applications.

This part consists of the following chapters:

• Chapter 4, Event Foundations
• Chapter 5, Tracking Changes with Event Sourcing
• Chapter 6, Asynchronous Connections
• Chapter 7, Event-Carried State Transfer
• Chapter 8, Message Workflows
• Chapter 9, Transactional Messaging
