Overview of this book

Enterprise Architecture (EA) is typically an aggregate of the business, application, data, and infrastructure architectures of any forward-looking enterprise. Due to constant changes and rising complexities in the business and technology landscapes, producing sophisticated architectures is on the rise. Architectural patterns are gaining a lot of attention these days. The book is divided in three modules. You'll learn about the patterns associated with object-oriented, component-based, client-server, and cloud architectures. The second module covers Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) patterns and how they are architected using various tools and patterns. You will come across patterns for Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), Resource-Oriented Architecture (ROA), big data analytics architecture, and Microservices Architecture (MSA). The final module talks about advanced topics such as Docker containers, high performance, and reliable application architectures. The key takeaways include understanding what architectures are, why they're used, and how and where architecture, design, and integration patterns are being leveraged to build better and bigger systems.

Event-Driven Architectural Patterns

Why do organizations need event-driven architecture (EDA)? Organizations across the world are operating in an agile manner and changing their structure frequently. They are evolving into business structures that can operate as independent service providers and consumers. These service providers and consumers need not necessarily exist within the organization. Some business services are outsourced to external business partners and other business services within the organization are looking to provide their services to external organizations in addition to internal business lines. All these emerging trends necessitate process architectures that have high levels of autonomy, or in other words, loose coupling between various application components that exist within an organization. The need for loosely coupled architecture with high levels of autonomy...
