Abstract:

Many business-critical systems for e-commerce were built using SOA (Service Oriented Architecture). These days as the volume of data and users have increased exponentially, some of these SOA systems have resorted to desperate measures like stringing together dozens of synchronous API calls to fulfill simple operations like inventory lookup. This not only results in high costs for performance but also high costs for maintaining these systems. This talk attempts to show some of the deficiencies of legacy architecture like SOA and how these are addressed in e-commerce by using modern techniques like Event Sourcing. We will heavily leverage the cloud in doing so. As a result, we will use some Serverless principles to handle the plumbing and coding.

Event Sourcing has revolutionized e-commerce by enabling distributed systems on a massive scale. These days some of the best solutions are Serverless - code executing in the cloud, reading and writing data to datastores in the cloud, without having to worry about trivial details like the data schema and scaling issues. In this talk, will walk through an event sourcing architecture and implement an e-commerce use case to demonstrate the power of event sourcing and serverless
