Event Notification

10. • Anything happened (or didnt happen).
• A change in the state.
• An event is always named in the past tense and is immutabled
• A condition that triggers a notification.
CustomerAddressChanged
InventoryUpdated
SalesOrderCreated
PurschaseOrderCreated

Events

11. • “Real-time” events as they happen at the producer
• Push notifications
• One-way “fire-and-forget”
• Immediate action at the consumers
• Informational (“someone logged in”), not commands (“audit this”)

13. • Supports the business demands for better service (no
batch, less waiting)
• No point-to-point integrations (fire & forget)
• Fault tolerance, scalability, versatility, and other benefits of
loose coupling.
• Powerful real-time response and analytics.
• Greater operational efficiencies

21. • SOA is all about dividing domain logic into separate systems and
exposing it as services
• In some cases business logic will, by its very nature, be spread out
over many systems or across various domain (cross domain).
• The result is domain pollution and bloat in the SOA systems.
Whats the problem

22. 22Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY

23. • Domain driven design promote the business logic to expose as a
service and focus should be on domain and domain logic.
• Domain event is an activity happened that domain expert is concerned.
• By exposing relevant Domain Events on a shared event bus we can
isolate cross cutting functions to separate systems

29. • Domain event- In domain-driven design, domain events are described as something that happens in the domain and is important
to domain experts.
- A user has registered
- An order has been cancelled.
- The payment has been received
Domain events are relevant both within a bounded context and across bounded contexts for implementing processes within the
domain.
Best for communication between bounded context.
29Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Domain event and event sourcing
■ Event Sourcing - Event Sourcing ensures that all changes to application state are stored as a sequence of events. It store
the events that lead to specific state and state too.
- MobileNumberProvided (MobileNumber)
- VerificationCodeGenerated (VerificationCode)
- MobileNumberValidated (no additional state)
- UserDetailsProvided (FullName, Address, …)
These events are sufficient to reconstruct the current state of the UserRegistration aggregate at any time.
Event Sourcing is for persistent strategy. Event Sourcing makes it easier to fix inconsistencies. Event Sourcing is local for a
domain.

Kafka Overview
• Distributed publish-subscribe messaging system.
• Designed for processing of real time activity stream data (log,
metrics, collections, social media streams,…..)
• Does not use JMS API and standards
• Kafka maintains feeds of message in topics
• Initially developed at Linkedin, now part of Apache.

33. 33Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Kafka History

34. • Reliability. Kafka is distributed, partitioned, replicated, and fault tolerant. Kafka
replicates data and is able to support multiple subscribers. Additionally, it
automatically balances consumers in the event of failure.
• Scalability. Kafka is a distributed system that scales quickly and easily without
incurring any downtime.
• Durability. Kafka uses a distributed commit log, which means messages persists
on disk as fast as possible providing intra-cluster replication, hence it is durable.
• Performance. Kafka has high throughput for both publishing and subscribing
messages. It maintains stable performance even when dealing with many terabytes
of stored messages.
34Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Benefits of Kafka

35. • Kafka is a messaging system that is designed to be fast, scalable, and durable.
• A producer is an entity/application that publishes data to a Kafka cluster, which is made up
of brokers.
• A Broker is responsible for receiving and storing the data when a producer publishes.
• A consumer then consumes data from a broker at a specified offset, i.e. position.
• A Topic is a category/feed name to which records are stored and published. Topics have partitions and
order guaranteed per partitions
• All Kafka records are organized into topics. Producer applications write data to topics and consumer
applications read from topics.

What is kafka

36. 36Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY

37. 37Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Kafka Architecture.

38. • Topic is divided in partitions.
• The message order is only guarantee inside a partition
• Consumer offsets are persisted by Kafka with a commit/auto-commit mechanism.
• Consumers subscribes to topics
• Consumers with different group-id receives all messages of the topics they subscribe.
They consume the messages at their own speed.
• Consumers sharing the same group-id will be assigned to one (or several) partition of the
topics they subscribe. They only receive messages from their partitions. So a constraint
appears here: the number of partitions in a topic gives the maximum number of parallel
consumers.
• The assignment of partitions to consumer can be automatic and performed by Kafka
(through Zookeeper). If a consumer stops polling or is too slow, a process call “re-
balancing” is performed and the partitions are re-assigned to other consumers.
38Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Key Concepts of Kafka

39. • Kafka normally divides topic in multiply partitions.
• Each partition is an ordered, immutable sequence of messages that is continually appended to.
• A message in a partition is identified by a sequence number called offset.
• The FIFO is only guarantee inside a partition.
• When a topic is created, the number of partitions should be given
• The producer can choose which partition will get the message or let Kafka decides for him
based on a hash of the message key (recommended). So the message key is important and will
be the used to ensure the message order.
• Moreover, as the consumer will be assigned to one or several partition, the key will also “group”
messages to a same consumer.
39Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Key Concepts of Kafka - continued

40. • A data source writes messages to
the log and one or more
consumers reads from the log at
the point in time they choose.
• In the diagram below a data source
is writing to the log and consumers
A and B are reading from the log at
different offsets.
40Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Log Anatomy

41. • We have a broker with three topics, where each topic has 8 partitions.
• The producer sends a record to partition 1 in topic 1 and since the partition is empty
the record ends up at offset 0.
41Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Record flow in Apache Kafka

42. • Next record is added to partition 1 will and up at offset 1, and the next record at offset
2 and so on.
• This is a commit log, each record is appended to the log and there is no way to
change the existing records in the log(immutable). This is also the same offset that
the consumer uses to specify where to start reading.

43. 43Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Apache Kafka Architecture

44. • Each broker holds a number of partitions and each of these partitions can be either a
leader or a replica for a topic.
• All writes and reads to a topic go through the leader and the leader coordinates updating
replicas with new data. If a leader fails, a replica takes over as the new leader.
44Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Kafka - Partitions and Brokers

45. • Producers write to a single leader, this provides a means of load balancing production
so that each write can be serviced by a separate broker and machine.
• In the image, the producer is writing to partition 0 of the topic and partition 0
replicates that write to the available replicas.

46. 46Document Title - Name - Function - Business Unit DD/MM/YYYY
Kafka Architecture- Topic Replication factor

47. • Producer is process that can publish a
message to a topic.
• Consumer is a process that can subscribe
to one or more topics and consume
messages published to topics.
• Topic category is the name of the feed to
which messages are published.
• Broker is a process running on single
machine
• Cluster is a group of brokers working
together.
• Broker management done by Zookeeper.

54. Integrate kafka with legacy
• JDBC connector for Kafka connect
• Use CDC (Change data capture) tool which integrates with kafka
connect.

55. • Kafka Connect is a tool for scalably and reliably streaming data between
Apache Kafka and other data systems.
Runs separately from Kafka brokers.

• Make the split right – Bounded context.
• Events are the communication between bounded context.
• Event can be Async communication b/w microsevices.
• Kafka is great source for messaging.
• Event hub is key in new enterprise integration world.
• Use CDC for legacy integrationn.
• Try Async API for event documentation.
