Presentation

Asynchronous Messaging & Eventing for Distributed Systems at Scale

In today’s era of distributed applications, microservices, and systems at scale, the key to achieving agility, resilience, and scalability lies in mastering the art of asynchronous messaging and eventing.

I’ll explore messaging design patterns such as:

• Competing consumers
• Pub/sub
• Event sourcing
• Command query responsibility segregation (CQRS)
• And more…

The session will include hands-on demonstrations implementing these patterns using platforms like Azure Service Bus, Event Hubs, and Event Grid.

Event Highlights

• Meet, connect, and share ideas with fellow cloud enthusiasts in the community
• Gain insights to build resilient, scalable, and performant systems
• Learn about messaging patterns and event-driven architectures
• See real-world implementations and practical applications
• Enjoy pizza courtesy of our sponsor responsiveX (that’s my company!)
