Back in 2016, I gave a talk at DockerCon: Microservices + Events + Docker = A Perfect Trio. To my surprise the video has been viewed 497K times!

My thinking has evolved since I gave that presentation. Especially when it comes to the role of event sourcing and events:

  • Event sourcing is simply one way of generating events
  • What was referred to as event-driven architecture is what I would now call choreography-based sagas (as opposed to orchestration-based sagas)
  • Events are simply one form of asynchronous messaging, which is essential for ensuring that services are loosely coupled

Also, the Docker ecosystem has evolved considerably over the past 4 years. And, of course, serverless has become much more important.

Nevertheless, I hope you find the talk interesting. Here are the slides and the video.

Upcoming public workshops: Microservices and architecting for fast flow

In-person: Berlin and Milan

DevOps and Team topologies are vital for delivering the fast flow of changes that modern businesses need.

But they are insufficient. You also need an application architecture that supports fast, sustainable flow.

Learn more and register for one of my upcoming public workshops in November.
