Microservices are one of the big trends in software engineering of the last few years; organizing business functionality in several self-contained, loosely coupled services that help teams work efficiently, and make the most suitable technical decisions. In this session, we will discuss and showcase how open-source change data capture (CDC) using Debezium can help with the challenges developers often face when working with microservices. The session will not only cover what is CDC and how Debezium works, but it will include three critical patterns, Outbox, Stranger Fig, and Saga. We will discuss these patterns in-depth and discover how they overcome the challenges when working with microservices.
