Benefits of Event-Driven Architecture in Business Systems

In day-to-day life, everything is driven by events. If the phone rings, you pick it up. If the timer on the oven pings, you switch it off.

To begin to understand this, it helps to think of your company as a collection of events. Some of these events occur over and over, such as customer purchases or CRM data entry.
