• Do Distributed Systems, they said. It'll be fun, they said.

  May contain unpleasant truths. In order to support modern systems’ needs, we have to be distributed. But, it is easier said than done. Let’s see together what challenges we have in such systems and strategies we can use to overcome them. We are all aware of the fallacies of distributed computing. Alongside them, there are other things we should consider as well. At AxonIQ, one of our core products is Axon Server which acts as a Messaging Platform and Event Store. In other words, a system that is by its nature distributed across several machines to be more reliable and scalable. Let’s see together what it means to build such a system, how to maintain it in (large variety of our customers’) production environments, and lastly, how to offer it as a service in the cloud.
