Event-Driven Architecture (EDA)

System components communicate asynchronously via events/messages.

Components:

• Event Producer: Generates and publishes events.
• Event Consumer: Listens and reacts to events.
• Event Broker: Manages event flow.

Structure:

Producer → Event Broker → Consumers

Pros:

• Loose coupling and flexibility.
• Highly scalable and adaptable.

Cons:

• Complexity in debugging event flows.
• Challenges in event versioning and consistency.

When to use:

• Real-time applications.
• Systems requiring asynchronous handling and scalability (IoT, real-time analytics).
