Tomorrow is the last day of this year's OOP conference. Enjoying it very much so far. Many conversations around AI of course, but grounded and thoughtful ones, beyond the hype. And many familiar faces. If you're here, join me tomorrow at 10am 👉 www.oop-konferenz.de/de/programm/... #oop

New: 2-day hands-on Event-Driven Architecture training. Looking for a first company to test it with - you get it for free, I get feedback. In-person, on-site, 6-10 people. Details: huehnken.de/training.html #EventDrivenArchitecture #Kafka #SoftwareArchitecture

The Kafka parallel consumer → github.com/confluentinc... API makes more sense than standard Kafka clients. Parallel processing preserving per-key ordering, per-message acks, and automatic retries. Could use modernization, but conceptually this looks nice. Thoughts? Experiences? #eda #kafka #java

Hallo Freund:innen des gepflegten #Java-Backends! 👋 Am 12.2. berichte ich bei der Java User Group Hamburg über #Spring Modulith. 👉 nilshartmann.net/t/e... #Java-Backends!#Springicht von der Warteliste abschrecken lassen...) Wenn ihr schon Fragen oder Meinungen zu dem Thema habt, gerne als Kommentar posten ☺️

Final call for #BOBkonf2026 Early Bird tickets -- sales end at 23:59 UTC+1 tonight! For more information, check bobkonf.de/2026/registr...

Planning to create a little companion site for my talk at BOBKonf: www.programminglanguages.eu Might not get it done in time, so to be safe, better come to the talk 👨‍🏫! Early-bird discount: ~25% off, until Friday, Januar 16. bobkonf.de/2026/en/regi... #bobkonf26 #programminglanguages #conference

Really enjoyed “Orchestration vs Choreography for Microservice Workflows”. Short, clear, and nicely balanced. Added it to the Awesome Event-Driven Architecture list 👍 www.ben-morris.com/orchestratio... codeberg.org/lutzh/awesom... #EventDrivenArchitecture #Microservices #SoftwareArchitecture

🎉 500 ⭐️ on Awesome Event-Driven Architecture! Thanks to everyone who starred, shared or contributed. It’s great to see the EDA community exchanging real-world lessons. If you’re interested in EDA, have a look: ➡️ github.com/lutzh/awesom... #softwarearchitecture #eventdrivenarchitecture #eda

Nice little 🇩🇪 article about @bobkonf.bsky.social ➡️ www.heise.de/news/BOB-Kon... It's a small-ish conference with a community feel for people who want to explore (and push) the boundaries of software development. Great that it gets some media attention. #conference #programminglanguages #bobkonf

Early-bird ends soon! In March 2026 I’m running my half-day intro workshop on event-driven architecture again — with a small Java/Kafka/Spring exercise. In Munich, in German 🇩🇪. ➡️ software-architecture-summit.de/muenchen/ #eda #eventdrivenarchitecture #softwarearchitecture #workshop #training

Excited to speak at OOP 2026 in Munich next February with a new talk on event-driven architecture patterns and anti-patterns. Use the code ”OOP2026-Huehnken” for 20% off your ticket. More info: www.oop-konferenz.de/en #OOP2026 #EDA #SoftwareArchitecture

On first sight, this article might seem like another example of slapping an AI sticker on a product to keep it interesting. But in this case, it makes sense. For agentic AI systems, event-driven architecture is still relevant. 👉 technode.global/2025/09/22/b... #eventdrivenarchitecture #eda #ai

The OOP in Munich was the first conference I ever attended as a junior dev. So I’m very excited to be back 25 years later, for OOP 2026, to speak about event-driven architecture. 👉 www.oop-konferenz.de/de/ueber-die... On Friday the 13th 😨! #eda #eventdrivenarchitecture #softwarearchitecture

I love local conferences, looking forward to meeting many people in the awesome Hammerbrooklyn in Hamburg at bit summit. #conference #hamburg #bitsummit

My KanDDDinsky talk this year: less fundamental than my usual talks. More: what works well, and what doesn’t. Patterns, lessons, and maybe a few true stories. The line-up is amazing, and I’m humbled to be part of it. Hope to see you there! 👉 kandddinsky.de #ddd #EDA #conference #Berlin #kandddinsky

Current status: Preparing the short, condensed, German 🇩🇪 version of my EDA workshop. I think it's going to be quite intense 😅. A lot to cover in 1/2 day. More info and sign up here: 🔗 software-architecture-summit.de/softwarearch... #workshop #eda #eventdrivenarchitecture #handson #berlin

In the wake of GitHub’s “CEO stepped down, no longer independent” news: Check out Codeberg — free Git hosting by a non-profit. No ads, no tracking, no corporate buyouts. codeberg.org #opensource #freesoftware #git #decentralization

I'm trying to assemble the ~20 best resources (talks, articles, books) around Event-Driven Architecture: codeberg.org/lutzh/awesom... What do you think is missing? Also, if you could give it a ⭐ that would help, too 🙏 . #eventdrivenarchitecture #eda #softwarearchitecture

Coding with AI feels like teaching. You still need to learn before you can teach. Deep understanding of the domain and software quality still matters. But not everyone who enjoys coding will enjoy instructing a machine. It’s a different kind of creativity. #AIProgramming #CodingWithAI #DevThoughts

Using a relational model in an Event-Driven Architecture? You probably know the transactional outbox pattern. Adding it to the Awesome Event-Driven Architecture list soon. Here’s a great 5‑min explainer: 📺 www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YLp... #EDA #EventDrivenArchitecture #SoftwareArchitecture

Back at KanDDDinsky for the third time! Join me in Berlin, 22–24 Oct, to explore patterns and antipatterns in Event-Driven Architecture. Details: kandddinsky.de #EDA #EventDrivenArchitecture #DDD #Berlin #Conference #KanDDDinsky

Always wanted this to be interactive so I could solve the cube in 2D. Everyone’s using AI code assistants now, so I had Claude build a first version. It’s rough - no tests yet - but already fun to play with (for me, anyway): www.huehnken.de/games/circle... #AIgenerated #LLM #puzzlegame #claude

On Oct 15, I’m running a half-day (German) workshop on Event-Driven Architecture in Java at the Software Architecture Summit in Berlin. Hands-on & practical. Know someone who might be interested? Please share! 🔗 bit.ly/eda-berlin #EDA #Java #SoftwareArchitecture

What I like about CTO Craft: it’s more than conferences, they’re building a community, with Slack and in-person mixers. I haven’t been to one yet, but there’s one in Hamburg next week. Looking forward to it! If you're a CTO or senior tech leader, maybe see you there? ctocraft.com/event/cto-cr...

Building a bank from scratch requires balancing agile principles with evolving architecture! @huehnken.de and @noroute.bsky.social l share their journey through DDD, microservices and autonomous teams. Watch the recording now on our Agile meets Architecture channel! youtu.be/pVqroDdYWMo #amaberlin

If you spent two full days on uncomfortable chairs and still enjoyed it, it must be @amaconf.bsky.social 😀. Many very pleasant encounters, the conference has a great community spirit about it. Thanks for having me! #conference #ama2025 #softwarearchitecture

The last conference of this Winter/Spring for me, ending the Spring conference season with a highlight: Stoked to be speaking at @amaconf.bsky.social later today. Currently enjoying the keynote by Simon Wardley. #conference #ama2025 #softwarearchitecture

I said I expected to be inspired, and Fast Flow Conf did not disappoint. Great talks all around, kudos to the speakers. And the closing keynote hitting a point for me as well, moving beyond "enabling team" for architecture. Great day. Also fantastic venue and organization! #ffc25 #fastflowconf

Fast Flow Conf starting strong with a keynote from Manuel Pais and Therese Engen. Makes me excited for the rest of the day. Expecting to be inspired. #ffc25 #fastflowconf

In "Foundations of Scalable Systems", Ian Gorton writes, among other things, about relational databases and how it's not uncommon to apply denormalization. Or well, he meant to, but on page 196 they printed something else.. which I'm sorry to hear 😀 #softwarearchitecture #bookclub #mademechuckle

If you'd like to attend FastFlowConf on March 27th in 🇳🇱 and haven't bought a ticket yet: This link will get you a 20% discount. See you there! ti.to/ffcnl/fast-f... #teamtopologies #softwarearchitecture #conference

Does anyone know a place in London where we can host the Gleam London meetup with some talks/presentations?

Excited to be at BOBKonf again next year. The conference feels very communal, speakers and attendees discussing as peers. For once I'm not going to talk about EDA, but about innovation in general purpose programming languages. bobkonf.de/2025/huehnke... #bobkonf #conference #programminglanguages

A while ago the great @davefarley77.bsky.social made an intro to Event-Driven Architecture: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb_0... His videos are always worth watching, so this one goes on the "Awesome EDA" list at github.com/lutzh/awesom... as well! #eventdrivenarchitecture #eda #softwarearchitecture

HALLO! Besitzt jemand diese Kassette? Ich brauche eine Information daraus. Wer sie hat, möge sich bei mir melden. Ist nicht aufwendig, aber enorm hilfreich für euren geliebten Powerpodcast AUSNAHME DER ROSE.

Usually, in an event-driven architecture, events are emitted by one service and listened to by many (1:n). But what if it's the other way around? I wrote down some long-winded thoughts about this here: www.reactivesystems.eu/2024/11/30/n... #eventdrivenarchitecture #eda #softwarearchitecture

Thrilled that my little list of awesome event-driven architecture resources - github.com/lutzh/awesom... - is now in the awesome list of awesome lists - github.com/sindresorhus... Thanks @sindresorhus.bsky.social for including it! #eda #eventdrivenarchitecture #softwarearchitecture #awesome

So my former colleague Jan Stępień is a brillant engineer / speaker / teacher, but the thing he'll be internet famous for is how websites can't handle his name 🤷‍♂️. wtf-8.xn--stpie-k0a81a.com is really funny, though. #encoding #utf #fail
