In this article, I express that the prevalent approach to building event-driven applications using the choreography pattern is misguided and can lead to significant technical debt. As an alternative, I introduce the Infinitic framework as a way to enable teams to implement event driven processes without the pain and complexity of building and managing an event-driven system themselves.

  Thanks - I did not intend to hide anything. Sorry if it was not clear that I was the original creator of Infinitic.

Shame it’s on Medium, so I immediately get a paywall / ad, and don’t end up reading your post.

      hmm, that's strange - it's a special "friend" url and I can access it myself from an incognito window using this url (I have a Medium banner to subscribe but I can close it).

    You should publish on your own blog, and syndicate to other places (Medium, substack, hackernoon, etc). This is better than: a) Publishing only on your own blog b) Publishing only on the most popular site. After all, your goal is to spread your message as far as possible. Single-site publications don't make sense in that context.

  Sometimes you can bypass this with private navigation, or using another browser

  Are you talking about the ad that asks you to consider paying for the content but has a little X to dismiss the dialog? Does Medium disable that X in different regions or is there another blocker I'm not seeing?
