Topic: Designing microservices using event modeling: Getting system boundaries and transactions right
Event Storming is great for designing microservices, understanding legacy code, planning projects and gaining a shared understanding of problem- and solution spaces. It has earned an "adopt" rating in the latest Thoughtworks Radar ("... event storming has rapidly become one of our favorite methods for rapidly identifying the key concepts in a problem space and aligning a variety of stakeholders in the best way to slice potential solutions.")
In this session, we'll explore some end-to-end event storming examples and share tips and tricks on how to get the most from the activity. We have used event storming for every project we've done in the last few years. We've seen some recurring themes and learned a number of lessons when turning event stormings into working systems and plans where everybody is on the same page and stays there which we'd like to share this evening.
