Clean architecture vs performance

What if we record all changes?

IssueCreated(123, 'Something', 'text', BUG, NORMAL, ' 2016..')

IssueAssigned(123, TeamManager, ' 2016-03-12 10:00:00')

PriorityChanged(123,URGENT, ' 2016-08-11 15:46:33')

IssueDellocated(123,'2016...')

IssueClosed(123,'2016...')

IssueReopened(123, ' 2017-10-05 08:01:35')

TitleChanged(123, ' Register button doesnt work in IE', '2016...')

and create state from applying them?

My ES + CQRS experience

project X

devboard

External concerts on TicketSwap

Defining bounded context

You as a TicketSwap user:

  • can sell tickets
  • can buy tickets
  • just use the site

In "boring" domain

In a startup

Concentrate on bringing value not perfect code

Saga/process manager

Queues

And worst enemy

Your best friend

Eventual consistency

  • never blindly trust your read model data
  • aggregates are ONLY source of truth

Domain - application - infrastructure separation

Saving invoice into RDBMS

blog post + comments

in NoSQL

Domain - application - infrastructure separation

Writing tests

Skip ES + CQRS if no testing experience

Writing tests

  • don't test state of aggregate root
  • concentrate on unit/integration testing
  • do some end-to-end tests

Mock the infrastructure

  • not locked to infrastructure while developing
  • 10-100x faster testing 

Performance

Loading aggregate root

    <10 events                   10 ms

    ~50 events                   20 ms

  ~100 events                   50 ms

~2000 events              1500 ms

Big aggregate root example

  • ~700 entities inside
  • 650.000 events

Snapshotting

Snapshotting DIY

  • creates a snapshot every ~200 events
  • 17Mb of payload
  • aggregate load time < 100ms

UUIDs

UUID performance

Class number explosion

  • UserController
  • User (Entity)
  • UserRepository
  • UserController
  • RegisterUserCommand
  • UserCommandHandler
  • User (AggregateRoot)
  • UserRepository
  • UserRegisteredEvent
  • UserReadProjector
  • UserReadEntity
  • UserReadRepository

Class number explosion

  • UserController
  • User (Entity)
  • UserRepository
  • UserController
  • RegisterUserCommand
  • ChangePasswordCommand
  • UserCommandHandler
  • User (AggregateRoot)
  • UserRepository
  • UserRegisteredEvent
  • PasswordChangedEvent
  • UserReadProjector
  • UserReadEntity
  • UserReadRepository

No read side logic

Building read side:

replaying events

Use familiar tech

ES+CQRS is a big shift in thinking

Final words

Thank you!
