Building Event-driven Apps at Scale
summary
Argues events must be treated like products and shows a working Solace flow: probes brokers and MSK/Kafka, reads schema registry, imports events into Event Portal, visualizes flows and bundles events into event API products using asyncAPI specs. Gives a real pilot: Unilever ingests roughly 1,500 shipment updates for single-dashboard visibility, reduces detention/demurrage costs and enables digital-twin what‑if modeling. Describes metadata (owner, version), directionality for consumers, release lifecycle and governance needed to expose and evolve event products.
