Designing your software around a story!



What is Event Sourcing?



Instead of defining a global data model that fits all of your use cases think about the things your system does. Record the events that occur and then build multiple data models that fit your individual use cases.



Sounds very abstract? In this talk, Leif will elaborate on some side projects including use cases with the hope to encourage you to switch to more event-centric thinking.
