Refactoring a Go backend from Request/Response to Event-Driven with Pub/Sub architecture can enhance scalability and flexibility. By decoupling components and allowing emersonrfp asynchronous communication via message brokers like Kafka or RabbitMQ, the system becomes more resilient to spikes in traffic and enables easier integration of new features or services. Embracing event-driven design fosters a more responsive and adaptable backend architecture, aligning with modern distributed systems principles.
