AWS re:Invent 2021 - Using events and workflows to build distributed applications

Modern applications are built by connecting multiple services together. What is the best way to coordinate the work of these different services? A strict workflow-based orchestration enforced from the outside, or an event-driven choreography that tells each component what it should listen to and what events it can produce? In this breakout session, dive into the possible options, and the pros and cons in different contexts, using a reference application and services like Amazon EventBridge and AWS Step Functions.

Thank you for this awesome demo. It was great to see worked examples of both events and workflows, and the explanation of when to use events vs. workflows (noting these can complement one other).
