Karun Japhet tells the tale of how one company bridged the technological divide between modern event-driven systems and traditional architectures, building a resilient platform with eventual consistency guarantees even when third parties provided no guarantees of reasonable service. The journey begins with a large enterprise wanting to move from an old-school SOA-based system to a modern event-sourced, event-driven CQRS-based domain-driven designed platform, which needed to exchange data with multiple third parties for day-to-day business. The need of the hour was a service architecture that provided guaranteed communication with nonreliable third parties without sacrificing the niceties of event-sourced DDD platforms. In comes our protagonist, the service gateway. Karun outlines this journey and shares ideas on how you can make your platform available and always ready to serve customers at scale, all the time—even if third parties or parts of your infrastructure are not available.
