As modern applications demand real-time responsiveness, traditional scheduled jobs are showing their limitations. Enter Change Data Capture (CDC) – a game-changing approach that can replace or complement your cron jobs for more efficient, real-time data processing. The Problem with Traditional Cron Jobs Cron jobs have served us well, but they come with inherent limitations: What […]
Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) is a powerful software architecture pattern that enables system components to communicate through the production and consumption of events. Instead of direct function calls or API requests, components emit events when something happens, and other components listen and react to these events accordingly. This architecture promotes loose coupling, scalability, and maintainability, making […]
Overview of Event Driven Architecture ✨ Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) is a design paradigm where systems communicate and respond to events in real-time. This architecture promotes loose coupling, scalability, and flexibility, as components are only connected through the events they produce and consume. Event-Driven Architecture is widely used in systems requiring high responsiveness and real-time processing, […]
AWS offers multiple services for decoupling business domains in event-driven patterns. The three main ones are EventBridge, SNS, and SQS. Use EventBridge for targeted content-based routing when you need to match complex rules. When multiple services or users need real-time notifications, SNS is a reasonable choice. Use SQS to buffer events when you want to […]
