📖 Bản tiếng Việt (Vietnamese Edition) Series Navigation: This is Part 3 of the Core Banking Systems Architecture Masterclass. For the complete architectural curriculum, start at the Master Overview Guide. Event Sourcing & CQRS: Immutable Ledger for Microservices Answer-first: Event Sourcing and CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) solve the fundamental tension in core banking between write-side audit immutability and read-side low-latency queries. By treating an append-only event log as the authoritative System of Record (SoR) and deriving balance read models asynchronously via transactional outbox Change Data Capture (CDC), financial platforms eliminate dual-write hazards, maintain mathematical auditability, and deliver sub-millisecond account balance lookups under massive concurrent workloads. ...
