Dapr Agenda Sessions:
Monday, May 19 | 11:15 AM-11:30 AM | From Zero to Event-Driven with Dapr and Azure Service Bus
Speaker: Ioan-Alexandru Man from Microsoft
Tired of chatty REST APIs? Let’s go event-driven! In this live demo, we’ll transform a REST-based microservice into a scalable, event-driven system using Dapr and Azure Service Bus. You’ll see how pub/sub messaging can reduce latency and improve performance. Whether you're new to event-driven architecture or want a faster way to implement it, this session will get you there in 15 minutes!
Monday, May 19 | 3:15 PM - 3:30 PM | Building Resilient Cloud-Native Microservices
Speaker: Alon Fliess from ZioNet
Learn how to build resilient cloud-native microservices using Dapr and modern Azure hosting solutions like AKS and ACA. This session will demonstrate strategies for managing distributed transactions using the Saga pattern and ensuring data consistency through eventual consistency. It will focus on practical demos and actionable insights for building robust cloud-native systems.
