Russ Miles: Ignored Architects and Chaos Engineering
At the recent Event-Driven Microservices Conference in Amsterdam, Russ Miles claimed that the biggest challenge for an architect is that you get ignored. You have great ideas like event-driven microservices, but the reaction too often is that it sounds good, but that it’s overly complicated for the needs at hand.

Axon Conference Panel: Why Should We Use Microservices?
In the panel discussion at the recent Event-Driven Microservices Conference in Amsterdam, Frans van Buul from AxonIQ, the conference organizer, started by noting that microservices are quite mainstream today. He wanted to look back at what we have learned, but also think about where we will be heading in the next couple of years.

NATS Messaging System Gets Kafka-Like Log API via Liftbridge
Joining the hot event-driven technology space is Liftbridge, an open-source project that extends the NATS messaging system with a scalable, Kafka-like log API. InfoQ spoke to creator Tyler Treat to learn more about the project, and the changing nature of data integration.

Axon Framework 3.3 with a Subscription Query API and Kafka Support
Version 3.3 of the Axon framework was recently released with a subscription query API for subscribing to query model updates, a manager for scheduling the publishing of deadline messages, and an Axon-Kafka module allowing for the use of Kafka to send and receive events. An updated version, 3.3.2, has also been released, and for those on version 3.3 an upgrade is strongly recommended.

Designing Microservice Architectures the Right Way: Michael Bryzek's Lessons Learned at QCon NY
At QCon New York 2018, Michael Bryzek discussed how to design microservice architectures “the right way”. Key takeaways included: engineers should design schema first for all APIs and events, as this allows the automated code generation of boilerplate code; and investment should be made in automation, such as deployment and dependency management.

QCon NY: Jonas Bonér on Designing Events-First Microservices
Events-first domain driven design (DDD) and event streaming are critical in developing a resilient and scalable microservices architecture. Jonas Bonér from LightBend engineering team spoke at QCon New York 2018 Conference last week about the events-first design.

Experiences from Building an Event-Sourced System with Kafka Streams
At the recent JEEConf conference in Kiev, Amitay Horwitz described how he and his team implemented an event-sourced invoice system, the challenges they experienced after running in production for 2 ½ years, and how they implemented a new design using Kafka Streams. The new design is still under assessment, but they do heavily use Kafka in production.

Business Processes, Long-Running Services and Microservices
During recent years domain events are increasingly being discussed, but we should be discussing commands just as much, Martin Schimak explained at the recent DDD eXchange 2018 conference, where he covered events, command and long-running services in a microservices world, and how process managers and similar tooling can help in running core business logic.

AWS Open Sources and Expands Serverless Application Model (SAM) Implementation
Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently open sourced its Serverless Application Model (SAM) implementation and added a new event source for CloudWatch Logs subscription filters. The preceding release featured a comprehensive expansion of options to configure and deploy REST APIs via Amazon API Gateway, including support for CORS headers, regional endpoints, and binary media types.

Events Are Reshaping the Future of Distributed Systems: Jonas Bonér at QCon London
There are many reasons why you should care about events; they drive autonomy, increase stability, help you move faster and allow for time travel, Jonas Bonér noted in his presentation at QCon London 2018, where he explored how events are reshaping modern system.

QCon London: Asynchronous Event Architectures with or without Actors
Synchronous request-response communication in microservices systems can be really complicated. Fortunately, asynchronous event-based architectures can be used to avoid this, Yaroslav Tkachenko claimed in a presentation at QCon London 2018, where he described his experiences with event-driven architectures and how Actors can be used in systems built on this architecture.
