SUMMARY:Choreography and Orchestration: React to Kafka Events in Real-Time 
 with Kafka Connect and Business-as-Code
LOCATION:Room 2008
DESCRIPTION:Colt McNealy\n\nWhile event-driven choreography and imperative 
 workflow orchestration are often framed as competing architectures\, in pr
 actice most production systems need both. Teams who lean too far in either
  direction run into trouble: chaining microservices together with queues t
 o implement a single business process produces a sprawling\, hard-to-debug
  mess\, while building behemoth workflows that span unrelated business dom
 ains creates a fragile\, distributed monolith. This talk presents practica
 l\, battle-tested guidelines for balancing orchestration and choreography 
 in real production Kafka environments: Using Business-as-Code to orchestra
 te multi-step processes within a single domain\, keeping logic cohesive\, 
 debuggable\, and easy to evolve. Publishing events to Kafka once workflows
  reach important milestones or completion\, so other domains can react wit
 hout tight coupling. Using Kafka Streams or Flink to enrich\, join\, and a
 ggregate events from multiple sources—including running workflows—to b
 uild real-time views and trigger downstream processes. Finally\, a live de
 mo with Kafka Connect\, Kafka Streams\, and the LittleHorse Server will le
 ave the audience with a concrete\, end-to-end example of how a balanced ap
 proach to choreography and orchestration helps you tame complexity and get
  the most out of your event-driven systems.
