Event sourcing and event driven are two different things.

  What is their relationship? I've been thinking of event-sourcing as a special case of event-driven: all event-sourced systems are event-driven, but the reverse is not true. Is this the generally accepted view or do folks view these as more orthogonal?

    event sourcing is indeed a special case of event-driven.

    In my opinion, event sourcing is a data persistence strategy. I personally never heard that it's considered part of event-driven architecture, but given speed of change in that space, I wouldn't be surprised.
