A Quick Guide to Event-Driven Architecture

In 2018, after a series of attacks, the chain of hotels Marriott notified their customers with bad news.

They said to them that they lost around 383 million records.

Someone connected to their database and stole data and payment details worth millions if not more of dollars.
