Today’s applications are interconnected: they expose APIs, publish events, call third-party services, and externalize states. They must therefore address the fundamental challenges of distributed systems, such as out-of-order delivery, retries, idempotence, or partial failures. To balance those characteristics, architects have a range of options, including reducing the level of coupling through indirection, transformation, and asynchrony. In this session, learn about common design trade-offs for distributed systems and how to navigate them with design patterns, illustrated with real-world examples.
