Explore the synergy between microservices, event-driven architecture, and Docker in this 45-minute conference talk. Delve into the challenges of developing and deploying microservices, focusing on maintaining data consistency across loosely coupled services with individual datastores. Learn how to overcome these obstacles by implementing an event-driven architecture and leveraging Docker for simplified deployment. Discover key concepts such as functional decomposition, data management patterns, event sourcing, and Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS). Gain insights into the benefits of containerization, running infrastructure services on development machines, and implementing a Jenkins-based deployment pipeline. By the end of this presentation, acquire the knowledge to effectively combine microservices, events, and Docker for more agile and efficient software development.
