Although we have already seen the CQRS implementation, I still feel that you may have a few queries related to eventstore, and how it works. That's why I'll take the use case of Kafka, which can be used as an eventstore for your application.
Kafka is, typically, a message broker or message queue (similar to RabbitMQ, JMS, and others).
As per the Kafka documentation, Event Sourcing is a style of application design where the state changes are logged as a time-ordered sequence of records. Kafka's support for very large stored log data makes it an excellent backend for an application built in this style.
