SBTB 2015: Duncan DeVore, CQRS/ES with Scala and Akka Persistence

-----

Command Query Responsibility Segregation with Event Sourcing (CQRS/ES) is a powerful way to build distributed systems. With tools like Scala, Akka and Akka Persistence, we now have tools at our disposal that allow us to build clustered environments that implement these types of patterns. This talk will explain the rationale behind CQRS/ES, how it fits the Reactive paradigm and the advantages at both the technology and business level. We will also discuss the implications of consistency models and how this approach affects Domain Driven Design.

Duncan DeVore works @ Typesafe, is co-author of Reactive Application Development, Manning Publications, and is passionate about reactive application (distributed systems) design using tools such as Scala and Akka.
