AxonIQ - Beyond event-driven with Axon Framework and Axon Server

Microservices have immense power but also pose challenges. One such challenge is achieving the perfect design. At AxonIQ, we advocate an evolutionary approach to microservices: begin with a monolith and gradually transform it into microservices when the need outweighs the additional load.

To accomplish this, applications need to go beyond event-driven. While events are essential, they are not sufficient on their own. We categorize message types into three distinct categories: Events, Commands, and Queries. Each type serves a specific purpose, carries certain expectations, and possesses unique routing characteristics.

Adopting this approach achieves location transparency, enabling seamless migration between monoliths and microservices without compromising the core business logic.
