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 architecture (EDA) patterns

With the emergence of legions of digitized items/smart objects/sentient materials, along with the scores of connected devices in our everyday environments, everyone is going to be significantly sagacious in his or her decisions, deeds, and deals. In the projected IoT world, a lot of decisive and deeper automation is bound to happen. Any tangible thing in our midst is internally as well as externally empowered in time to proactively and pre-emptively act on all kinds of noteworthy events. That is, every single entity in and around us is going to be event-driven. The role of IT in the projected event-driven world is paramount and path-breaking. The IT systems and business applications/services have to capture, buffer, process, mine, and analyze all incoming events to spit out insights. The days ahead are definitely digital, and our everyday...
