[/ɪˈvɛnt beɪst ˈɑːrkɪtɛktʃər/]
nounpl: event-based architectures
arquitetura orientada a eventos
1. A software design pattern where components communicate asynchronously by producing, detecting, and consuming events rather than through direct method calls or synchronous request-response interactions
The company adopted an event-based architecture to handle thousands of concurrent transactions without system bottlenecks.
A empresa adotou uma arquitetura orientada a eventos para processar milhares de transações simultâneas sem gargalos no sistema.
2. A distributed system design approach where state changes are captured as events and propagated across loosely coupled services
In an event-based architecture, when a user places an order, an 'OrderCreated' event is published to notify all relevant microservices.
Em uma arquitetura orientada a eventos, quando um usuário faz um pedido, um evento 'PedidoCriado' é publicado para notificar todos os microsserviços relevantes.
This is a modern software architecture concept that emerged from cloud computing and microservices trends. In Brazil and Portugal, this terminology is primarily used in tech companies, startups, and among software engineers working with distributed systems. It's increasingly common in corporate environments dealing with real-time data processing and digital transformation initiatives. The term is typically used in English even in Portuguese-speaking technical contexts, though the Portuguese translations are gaining adoption in documentation and training materials.
