Building Distributed Event-Driven Architectures Across Multi-Cloud Boundaries

“Event-driven architecture” is a frequently discussed topic in architectural conversations. However, in today’s multi-cloud landscape, the more pressing question is: “How can we implement these patterns across cloud boundaries without compromising reliability?

While architects can create appealing event-driven designs, engineers face the daunting task of building distributed systems that must seamlessly integrate with numerous third-party services, manage cross-cloud communication, handle varying event delivery guarantees, and ensure consistency across diverse cloud services.

Key Takeaways:

  • Understanding why distributed events behave unexpectedly across cloud boundaries and how to handle it
  • Building asynchronous systems spanning multi-cloud that are resilient and perform predictably under high load
  • Enhancing observability with a focus on health checks and monitoring across cloud boundaries
  • Challenges and approaches to maintain data consistency
