How Event-Driven Architecture Improves Modern Web App Development

Imagine your application handling millions of events per second, with services that scale independently and recover gracefully from failures. This isn't just a dream—it's what Event-Driven Architecture enables.

In traditional architectures, components are tightly coupled. When one service fails, it can bring down the entire system. When you need to scale, you have to scale everything together. When you want to add new features, you risk breaking existing functionality.

Event-Driven Architecture solves these problems by introducing a fundamental shift: services communicate through events, not direct calls.

In this comprehensive guide, you'll learn:

  • The core principles of Event-Driven Architecture
  • Why Node.js is perfectly suited for EDA
  • How to build a complete event-driven system from scratch
  • Production-grade patterns including retry logic and error handling
