Software Architecture Consulting.

What you get

• Deep analysis of whether event-driven architecture fits your use case
• Architecture design for event-driven systems (pub/sub, streams, queues, CQRS)
• Clear guidance on when NOT to use event-driven patterns
• Implementation roadmaps with trade-offs and alternatives considered

How it works

1. Requirements assessment: Understand your domain, scale requirements, and team capabilities
2. Architecture evaluation: Determine if event-driven is appropriate or if alternatives (REST, RPC, batch processing) would serve better
3. Design & planning: Create detailed architecture with event flows, data models, and integration patterns
4. Implementation guidance: Code reviews, pairing sessions, and rollout support

When event-driven makes sense

• High-volume data processing with loose coupling requirements
• Systems needing to handle variable loads and spikes
• Complex business workflows with multiple stakeholders
• Real-time analytics or notification systems
• Microservices architectures with distributed teams

When to avoid event-driven

• Simple CRUD applications with predictable loads
• Systems requiring strong consistency guarantees
• Real-time user interactions needing immediate responses
• Small teams without distributed systems experience
• Legacy system migrations without clear business case

Packages

• Architecture Sprint (1-2 weeks): Complete architecture design for a specific system or component
• Technical Retainer (monthly): Ongoing architecture guidance and code review support
• Architecture Workshop (1 day): Team alignment and pattern selection for your specific context
