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.
