You need to be signed in to add a collection
Like many scale ups, Motorway’s rapid growth resulted in a highly coupled and synchronous system, where messages existed but didn’t form the core of the services. In this session, Ryan reveal the key differences between a system with messages and an event driven system. He will showcase just how Motorways product and engineering teams work together to accommodate the changes that an event driven architecture brings. Ryan will show how they identified domain boundaries and how Motorway have defined their asynchronous APIs. The talk culminating in how Motorway delivered the first event driven system in a matter of weeks in a decoupled and isolated way.
