August 14th: CQRS and Event Sourcing with Josh Bush

[Vice President of the Nashville .NET User Group]

As kids we learned everything we already need to know about Event Sourcing, just follow the breadcrumbs! Real world applications are rarely simple enough to fit into the mold that cookie cutter tools provide. What happens when the requirements for that “simple” piece of software grow in a direction that is unexpected? Often the end of a project becomes a series of tradeoffs between performance and maintainability.

How can we write clean code that will solve our basic use case now and have enough flexibility to adapt to future requirements? Event sourcing allows us to see not only what changed with our data, but the reasons why it changed. In this talk you’ll learn how Event Sourcing and CQRS can keep you out of the oven. Along the way, I’ll share some lessons learned from building a real application using these techniques.
