Event-Driven Architecture (EDA)

Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) is a way of designing computer systems where different parts react to events or changes happening within the system. Instead of following a set sequence of steps, components listen for specific events—like a new user sign-up or a payment received—and respond when those events occur. This approach allows systems to be more flexible, scalable, and efficient, as components operate independently and only act when needed. Essentially, EDA is about creating systems that respond dynamically to real-time activities, improving responsiveness and reducing delays.
