Overview of this book

Event-driven architecture in Golang is an approach used to develop applications that shares state changes asynchronously, internally, and externally using messages. EDA applications are better suited at handling situations that need to scale up quickly and the chances of individual component failures are less likely to bring your system crashing down. This is why EDA is a great thing to learn and this book is designed to get you started with the help of step-by-step explanations of essential concepts, practical examples, and more. You’ll begin building event-driven microservices, including patterns to handle data consistency and resiliency. Not only will you learn the patterns behind event-driven microservices but also how to communicate using asynchronous messaging with event streams. You’ll then build an application made of several microservices that communicates using both choreographed and orchestrated messaging. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build and deploy your own event-driven microservices using asynchronous communication.

Part 1: Event-Driven Fundamentals

This first part will provide an understanding of what event-driven architecture (EDA) is and the benefits of using it for your next application. We will also be introduced to the application we will be working with. This part will also cover some helpful patterns that can be helpful for the adoption and development of EDA. Then, it will introduce methods for planning an application using EventStorming.

This part consists of the following chapters:
