Technical solution patterns
Event-driven data management for Microservices
Event-driven data architecture is a way of designing applications and services to respond in real-time based on individual event notification information.
Reactive applications
Reactive applications are responsive, resilient, elastic and message-driven. They guarantee easy replication and non-blocking communication.
API lifecycles
APIs are central to mobile applications, cloud computing and the Internet of Things. It is essential to deal with full API lifecycle management.
