Batch processing cannot keep up with real-time business
Enterprise integration has traditionally relied on batch processing — files transferred overnight, databases synchronized hourly, reports generated once a day. But business now moves in real time. Customers expect instant order confirmation. Supply chains need immediate visibility. Fraud detection cannot wait for a nightly batch run. Point-to-point integrations that poll for changes waste resources and add latency.
Event-driven architecture replaces this model with publish-subscribe patterns where systems emit events as they happen, and interested consumers react immediately. It decouples producers from consumers, enables real-time processing and scales naturally as event volume grows.
Model & Design
We identify event-producing systems, define event schemas, model bounded contexts and design the event topology — topics, partitions, consumer groups and retention policies.
Build & Stream
We deploy the event platform (Kafka, RabbitMQ or cloud-native), implement producers and consumers, set up schema registry and configure dead-letter queues for error handling.
Monitor & Evolve
Event flow monitoring, consumer lag tracking, schema evolution management and performance optimization. The platform grows as new event sources and consumers are added.
What we deliver
Enterprise Kafka deployment with proper cluster sizing, partition strategy, replication configuration and security. Managed (Confluent, MSK, Event Hubs) or self-hosted based on requirements.
Schema definition using Avro, Protobuf or JSON Schema with a schema registry for version management. Backward and forward compatibility enforcement for safe schema evolution.
Real-time event processing using Kafka Streams, Apache Flink or Azure Stream Analytics. Windowed aggregations, joins, filtering and enrichment for complex event processing scenarios.
Event sourcing patterns where system state is derived from an immutable event log. Command Query Responsibility Segregation for optimized read and write paths in high-performance systems.
Adding event capabilities to legacy systems using change data capture (CDC), outbox patterns and database triggers. Legacy systems become event producers without code changes.

Anadolu Efes
Anadolu Efes relied on hourly batch synchronization between SAP, warehouse systems and mobile field-sales applications. Sales teams worked with stale inventory data, leading to order rejections and customer frustration.
We implemented a Kafka-based event platform with CDC on SAP and warehouse databases. Inventory changes stream in real time to all consuming systems. Mobile apps receive push updates within seconds of any change.
Inventory data freshness improved from hourly to sub-second. Order rejection rate due to stale data dropped by 90%. The event platform now processes 500K+ events daily.
Where we apply it
- Confirm orders and trigger fulfillment in real time
- Keep inventory consistent across every warehouse and channel
- Flag suspicious transactions within milliseconds
- Process millions of IoT events daily without lag
- Stream customer activity to personalization engines instantly
