Presentation: Tweet"Finance's forgotten Treasure: an Introduction to CQRS & Axon"
Command-Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) is an architectural pattern that was identified about 4 years ago. In that time, it has proven to be a useful pattern to build highly scalable applications while reducing complexity. Although originally rooted in the financial industry, its potential is starting to be recognized throughout finance as well as other industries.
In this session, Allard will introduce CQRS and related concepts. He will explain how this architectural pattern is employed to build scalable, high performance applications. Based on some examples seen in real-life production systems, he will reveal how CQRS is used in finance, gaming and healthcare to meet the demands of modern web-based applications.
Furthermore, Allard will show how Axon, a framework for building CQRS-based applications on the JVM, can kick-start your project. He will explain how your code-base can be simplified and yet be much more powerful, by separating the business logic from the infrastructure components. Although the Axon Framework itself is Java-based, the core concepts are language-independent and therefore also applicable in non-JVM languages.
