Distributed Systems

We live in an asynchronous event-based distributed system called nature. Yet, we are constantly and furiously evolving at scale. How did we ever manage to get this far without sharing mind and body with the rest of humanity? Through ages of communicating with other processes we have found ways of making progress in a world with generally unreliable, misbehaving people. Luckily for us, one human failing does not bring down humanity. How can we learn from the world we live in, in order to design cohesive, scalable and fault tolerant services? In his talk, Marcus will explore real world analogies to the challenges we face in distributed systems and how they can help us find and to reason about bounded contexts and communication between services.
