In this episode, I continue my conversation with my colleague Milen Dyankov about AxonIQ’s biggest learning platform: AxonIQ Academy. We discuss why AxonIQ Academy was designed and the challenges of creating & producing this platform.
AxonIQ Academy consists of courses explaining many architectural overviews — such as DDD, CQRS, Event — as well as detailed courses on Axon Framework and Axon Server.
The courses are formatted as short videos along with written documents and code samples. At the end of each video, there's a short quiz, and at the end of each course there is an exam. If you pass, you receive a certificate.
Not all courses have been produced and published at this time, but several courses are currently available, with an offer to purchase several courses in a bundle.
Check out AxonIQ Academy, and let us know if you have any feedback or questions.

In this episode I spoke with my two colleagues Sara Pellegrini and Milan Savic. Sara and Milan have been working closely together on developing Axon Server and Axon Framework for the past four years. We discussed different types of messages (commands, events, and queries) as well as Message Routing Patterns. We discussed the various protocols used to route these messages by Axon Server, such as gRPC and HTTP.
We discussed possible communication challenges, such as latency (benefits and drawbacks), backpressure, and flow control. We also touched on Cluster configuration and Raft protocol.
For more information on Clustering in Axon Server and Raft Protocol please listen to my previous talk with Milan.

This is the second part of my conversation with Steven Randolph, the founder and CEO of Harbormaster. Harbormaster is a techstack agnostic application generator that gives developers control over what is needed and what can be modified when generating their applications. Steven shared his learning experience and what helped him design this generator. He also explained how he helps clients and their teams navigate how they can benefit from this generator.
In this part, Steven explained more about the yaml file and how it can help the deployment process with Harbormaster. We also talked about how flexible the generator is for various use cases and how it can be customized. We also discussed how the AxonIQ Initializer and Harbormaster can join efforts or what each project can be used for, and lastly, what’s in the pipeline for future growth in our partnership.

In this episode, I spoke with the product and platform CTO at TechMahindra, a large Indian Telecommunication sector, Pieter Pabst. Pieter is responsible for Blue Marble which is an e-commerce software solution for telecommunication companies, as well as a configured price quote omnichannel sales platform, which provides customers with a self-service platform for buying or subscribing to a variety of benefits. Some of these benefits are mobile billing, cable tv channels, a headset purchase on credit, and much more. These benefits change and update regularly and many times these versions of subscriptions need to co-exist and be updated simultaneously, which in turn add to the complexity of the models and applications.
Blue Marble system is also integrated into the telco’s business support system and operation support which allows the customers to self-activate and use a self-service interface with chatbot capability when help is needed.
Considering all that is required of this platform Pieter explained the beginnings of Blue Marble and how it evolved from a monolithic system into microservices using CQRS and Event Sourcing. He walked me through the decision-making process and how his team began by making their own in-house implementations of CQRS and event-sourced applications and eventually choosing to use libraries and frameworks, such as Axon Framework. He also explained why they decided to use Axon Server enterprise edition. We also discussed dealing with privacy and how they manage to handle sensitive data.
Lastly, Pieter talked about the future of telecommunication and some of the services that use event sourcing, such as machine learning, and 5G technology. I hope you enjoy this talk!

In this episode, I spoke with Ivan Dugalic, our lead Solutions Architect at AxonIQ. Ivan has worked closely with many companies helping them design and model their complex applications. One of the topics that regularly comes up is the difference between bounded context and aggregate. We discussed the meaning of bounded context and aggregate and how they are related to one another. We also talked about ubiquitous language, patterns, heuristics, entities, sagas, and much more during our talk.
Ivan and I wrote a series of blogs called “From (event)Model to Code” and we recently presented a workshop at the JCON conference. Many of these topics of this talk were closely discussed in our blogs and we hope to have more resources in the near future to help folks learn and understand these concepts more quickly and easily.
