O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.
I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.
I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
Wrapping Up
Once your event stream goes from in-memory and ephemeral to a real, durable, replayable stream, then a whole bunch of code and patterns escape the “hello world” bubble. In this chapter, you went through the process of seeing what is involved in making it real from evaluating and comparing event and projection stores and capacity planning to upgrading the code for Lunar Frontiers to use a Postgres event log and Redis projections.
In the next chapter, you’ll apply everything you’ve learned so far to the notion of evolutionary architectures and explore how event-sourced systems can safely change over time.
