Mind map breaking down Event-Driven Architecture into Producers, Message Brokers, Consumers, CQRS, and Event Sourcing.

What it shows

  • Producers emit immutable domain facts without knowing consumer logic.

  • CQRS and event sourcing separate read projections from write logs.

The takeaway

Event-driven architectures trade synchronous coupling for eventual consistency.
