EventStoreDB: The Solution To Modern Software Architecture Pain Points

EventStoreDB is used by companies across a range of use cases to reduce complexity, increase scalability, improve auditing, and provide real-time data with rich business context for downstream analytics.

  • Most traditional databases only provide the current state of your application or domain. The context that led to that change in state is lost. EventStoreDB stores your data as a series of immutable events over time that allows for greater data integrity and transparency.

  • When your application stores important, critical data and integrates with more and more external systems it becomes tightly coupled and hard to scale. With EventStoreDB you can decouple your external systems with asynchronous messaging making your system cleaner and more compact.

  • As your system grows, traditional databases may face challenges in scaling horizontally. This can lead to increasing write latency and a slowdown in the overall system. With EventStoreDB, legacy systems can be broken down one use case at a time, allowing you to decouple your complex systems to create scalable and flexible microservices.

  • When you append events into EventStoreDB, they are stored as a reliable log of the changes in your application. The change itself is stored as well as the context of the change. These changes represent a core asset of your business and can be streamed, replayed, and transformed into whatever shape you need. With EventStoreDB events are written to disk making it ideal for a “source of truth” database.

Main Features Of EventStoreDB

rebase

Guaranteed writes

Writes are committed to disk which makes it ideal for a “source of record” database.

event

High availability

EventStoreDB can run as a cluster of nodes containing the same data which remains available for writes provided at least half the nodes are alive and connected.

tactic

Projections

Projections allow you to react to events as they are written, and to create new events when interesting combinations occur.

responsive

Client
interfaces

There are client SDKs based on the gRPC framework for all major languages and platforms including .NET, Node.js, Python, Java, Go and Rust.

domain

Optimistic 
concurrency checks

Writes supports an optimistic concurrency check on the version of the stream to which events are written. If the check fails during writing, the server returns an exception to let you know.

stacked

Great performance 
that scales

Whilst performance depends on configuration and use patterns, we’ve benchmarked EventStoreDB at around 15,000 writes per second and 50,000 reads per second!

smb_share

Multiple hosting options

The server can run on Windows, Linux, and MacOS, both on-premises or in-cloud.

demography

Commercial support plans

Multi-tiered support plans with response times as low as 2-hours. If you’re a support customer, you’ll also get access to a commercial version and a range of operational tools.

database

Immutable data store

EventStoreDB stores your data as a series of immutable events over time, providing one of the strongest audit log options available (characteristics similar to a blockchain).

EventStoreDB Integrations

EventStoreDB works well alongside message brokers such as Kafka, and traditional data stores such as MongoDB and Postgres. Acting as your single source of truth, EvenStoreDB can feed other databases within your architecture using writes, projections and subscriptions.
