Getting started with Event-Driven APis

on YouTube ↗27m

" summary

Practical primer on turning request/response APIs into event-driven systems, showing concrete tooling and patterns: Kafka and Red Hat AMQ for messaging, schema registry for contracts, and an example microservice pair (publisher + consumer) wired to a topic. Demonstrates how to handle out‑of‑order delivery, consumer replay for backfill, and dead‑letter handling, and measures end‑to‑end tradeoffs in coupling and latency. Slides include code snippets, deployment steps, and troubleshooting tips that work against legacy systems.
