PodChats for FutureCIO: How EDA drives business modernisation in 2021

Business agility is the capability of a company to rapidly change or adapt in response to changes in the market. The concept is centred around handling operations and resources in a flexible, responsive manner to drive maximum business value. One of the least understood, least discussed tools for enabling this agility is an event-driven architecture (EDA). It has appeared in a few other names in the past including message-driven architecture (MDA) and flows from service-oriented architectures (SOA). Sumeet Puri, chief technology solutions officer at Solace, describes how EDA is enabling the digital aspirations of organisations and offers learnings and shared experiences on what works and what doesn't when it comes to EDA-powered digital transformation.
