New Articles on Event Sourcing and CQRS

Within last month I've published more drafts of the articles on Event Sourcing and Event Centric Development. There is still a lot of work to do, but I'd like to share what I have now.

• Event Sourcing Contents

  • Why
  • Versioning
  • New Draft: Projections
  • New Draft: Specifications
  • New Draft: Aggregates

• Event Centric Development Contents

  • New Draft: Identity
  • New Draft: Commands and Events
  • New Draft: Aggregates II

What do you think? What questions do you have?

Besides, I've opened my Farley File project on github. It is as old as hell (Latest commit dates back to July 26). I've been using it to learn event sourcing back then.

While doing that I'd like to thank all people in various countries who have lend their experience and knowledge, while letting me learn all that. All that information is just a compilation of their shared wisdom in my own words.

The journey is not over yet. I'm learning new things every week. Besides, there are quite a few missing pieces from the classes on "Advanced CQRS for Developers", "Practical CQRS in Cloud" and "Advanced CQRS for managers". Stay tuned for the updates.

Rinat,

I just finished listening to all of the Distributed Podcast talks. You guys did a great job explaining CQRS, and answering a lot of the questions I had.

I briefly looked over these articles. I cannot wait until you complete the Rebuilding portion of the Projections article. I am especially interested in the steps / mechanics that goes into replaying events into the Query Model. Do you have to drop the entire query model? Is there a way to bring up a new Event Handler and only send the events to that particular Event Handler?

This is where I am particularly stuck at the moment. How is this done from an operational standpoint.

Thanks for your work
Carlus

Carlus, I've updated the projections article with the Rebuilding section (the simplified approach that works for me). Does this help?
