When it comes to building distributed systems, RPC and REST style interfaces aren't the only options. Events provide an alternative way to build a distributed system that can result in more robust systems that are easier to extend and deploy, while reducing the chances of a single bottlenecked service taking down the entire system. In this episode, your host Angelica is joined by Indu Alagarsamy, Ignacio Castillejos, and Chris Richardson to discuss what event-driven architecture is, what technologies can be used with it, and how to model and evolve events.

This episode's extended content includes two chapters: one about domain drive design and another about AI/ML. Get access by signing up at https://fallthrough.fm/subscribe.
