Cloud Native Architecture

Microservices

Event-Driven Design

??? note "infoq.com: Turning Microservices Inside-Out" Access Resource 🌟🌟🌟🌟 | Level: Advanced

This foundational architectural piece by Martin Kleppmann argues for treating database tables as streams of changes rather than static silos. By turning the database "inside out" using event streams (like Kafka), microservices can achieve decentralized state management and projection consistency. It bridges the gap between stream processing and relational storage.
