Description: Event-driven architecture is a software architecture pattern that promotes the production, detection, and consumption of events. In this approach, systems are designed to react to events rather than follow a predefined control flow. This allows for greater flexibility and scalability, as system components can communicate asynchronously, facilitating the integration of various services and applications. Events can be generated by users, external systems, or internal processes and are used to trigger specific actions in response to changes in the system’s state. The main characteristics of event-driven architecture include component decoupling, the ability to handle large volumes of real-time data, and the possibility of implementing design patterns such as pub/sub (publish/subscribe) and event sourcing. This approach is particularly relevant in environments where agility and responsiveness are critical, such as in web applications, real-time monitoring systems, and IoT (Internet of Things) platforms. Event-driven architecture enables organizations to quickly adapt to changing market needs and enhance user experience by providing faster and more efficient responses to interactions.
