Meetup 4: Introduction to Event Sourcing

Please note the change of venue!

This month we're joined by Duncan Jones to discuss Event Sourcing

Abstract

"Introduction to Event Sourcing" is a beginner level introduction to event sourcing, a data storage idea that works on capturing the change history of the system as a sequence of events and recreating the state from this history, and I will also show how it fits into the larger concepts of CQRS and up to DDD - with some discussion on how to host and use event sourcing in microservices. Beginner's level talk , no code but mostly diagrams, interactive discussion and Lego.

Speaker

Duncan is a Microsoft MVP and developer with a background in the financial services industry. He has a personal interest in highly scalable systems, which has lead to Event Sourcing (by way of CQRS). Currently working with HedgeFacts, a supplier of software and services to the Hedge Fund industry. He previously presented talks on printing and on
debugging way back in 2006.
