Implementing an Event Sourcing Strategy on Azure

on YouTube ↗42m

" summary

Describes an end-to-end event sourcing pipeline on Azure using Azure Event Hubs to ingest Kafka-compatible streams, serverless Azure Functions to apply business logic and write events into a Cosmos DB–based event store. Covers using the Cosmos DB change feed for projections and replay, guidance on partition key selection and global distribution for low-latency reads, and demonstrates connectors, transformation functions, an operational dashboard, and high-throughput handling (millions of events) with a live demo.
