SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides guidance and templates for designing and implementing event stores, which are crucial for building scalable and auditable event-sourced systems.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Event Store Design Patterns: Understand different architectures and requirements for event stores.
  • Technology Comparison: Evaluate various technologies like EventStoreDB, PostgreSQL, Kafka, and DynamoDB for your needs.
  • Implementation Templates: Get practical SQL schemas for PostgreSQL and code examples in Python and for EventStoreDB and DynamoDB.
  • Use Case: When architecting a new microservice that needs to maintain a complete history of state changes, use this Skill to select the right event store technology and implement its schema.

Quick Start

Use the event-store-design skill to generate a PostgreSQL schema for an event store.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design an event store for an event-sourced system?

Designing an event store requires creating an append-only, ordered, and versioned persistence layer for state changes. This Skill provides architecture patterns and implementation templates for building robust event stores using PostgreSQL, Python, and EventStoreDB.

What is the best way to implement event sourcing with PostgreSQL?

The best way to implement event sourcing with PostgreSQL is using a dedicated schema that enforces append-only and ordered event persistence. This Skill generates practical SQL schemas and Python code examples tailored for building event stores on PostgreSQL.

How does EventStoreDB compare to DynamoDB for event sourcing?

Comparing EventStoreDB and DynamoDB for event sourcing involves evaluating specific database architectures against your requirements. This Skill provides a technology comparison to help you select the right tool and offers templates for both EventStoreDB and DynamoDB implementations.

When do I need an append-only event store in microservices?

You need an append-only event store in microservices when maintaining a complete, auditable history of state changes is required. This Skill addresses event store architecture requirements and helps implement versioned event persistence for scalable systems.

Does this event store design approach support Domain-Driven Design?

Yes, this event store design approach supports Domain-Driven Design by providing an append-only, ordered persistence layer for domain events. It includes architecture patterns and Python implementation templates aligned with DDD and event sourcing principles.
