Event-Driven Architecture often promises loosely coupled, infinitely scalable systems, but a closer look at “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Truth About Event-Driven Architecture” shows it’s not all sunshine. Temporal vs design-time coupling isn’t just semantics, scaling can simply move your bottlenecks elsewhere, and those fancy cross-service workflows you’ve been building? They’re a classic design smell waiting to trip you up.
On top of that, event ordering isn’t a solved problem—it can bite you if you don’t plan for it—and drawing clear boundaries around your events is key to keeping things sane. This no-fluff review gives you the real scoop on where EDA shines and where it might leave you tangled.
