## A Journey from Hexagonal Architecture to Event Sourcing by Carlos Buenosvinos (https://twitter.com/buenosvinos)

### Abstract

Event-based architectures such as Event Sourcing provide multiple benefits: scalability, complexity management, auditing, etc. However, let’s face it, getting there is quite hard. We lack skills, expertise and courage.

In this talk, I’m going to show you some tips and tricks to painless evolve your current architecture towards Event Sourcing, one small step at a time. We’ll start from an Hexagonal Architecture application and we’ll end up in the Event Sourcing doors. The path that we’ll follow is:

Hexagonal Architecture
Hexagonal Architecture with Domain Events
Stepping Stone Architecture (CQRS without Event Sourcing)
Event Sourcing
Talk level: Intermediate to Expert

Requirements: Basic concepts of Hexagonal Architecture (Entities, Repositories, Application Services, etc.)

## From Helpers to Middleware by Marco Pivetta (https://twitter.com/Ocramius)

### Abstract

Over the past decade, we've seen frameworks bloom, die, be replaced and re-born. We've seen good practices, anti-patterns and generally styles of coding come and go. What's the takeaway from the last decade of framework development? Where are we going? What should we explore next?
We'll look at a brief history of frameworks, at which practices emerged from the various communities, and which of them survived and evolved, as well as recommendations to keep pushing forward.
