In this video, Adam Bellemare compares and contrasts EventDriven and RequestDriven Architectures to give you a better idea of the tradeoffs and benefits involved with each.

To learn more about EventDriven Architectures, check out Adam’s video on the 4 Key Types of EDA:    • 4 Key Types of EventDriven Architecture  

Many developers start in the synchronous requestresponse (RR) world, using REST and RPC to build interservice communications. But tight servicetoservice coupling, scalability, fanout sensitivity, and data access issues can still remain.

In contrast, EventDriven Architectures (EDA) provide a powerful way to decouple services in both time and space, letting you subscribe and react to the events that matter most for your line of business.
