How does checkpointing work in these projections?

The skill includes logic to save the last processed event position (global position or sequence number), allowing the projector to safely resume from where it left off after a system restart.

Can I use this for real-time dashboards?

Absolutely. The skill covers 'Live' projection types that process events in real-time as they are appended to the stream, making them ideal for live updates.

What are projection patterns used for?

They are used to transform a series of events into a specific data format (a read model) that is optimized for specific queries, reporting, or search requirements.

Does this skill support different database types?

Yes, it provides templates and patterns for relational databases using SQL as well as NoSQL search engines like Elasticsearch.

Database Management

Design and implement efficient read models and materialized views from event streams for event-sourced architectures.

About

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for building projections in event-sourced systems, enabling developers to transform raw event streams into optimized read-side databases. It covers various projection strategies including live subscriptions, catch-up processing, and persistent checkpointing, while offering ready-to-use templates for SQL databases, Elasticsearch indexing, and complex data aggregations. It is essential for implementing Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) patterns and improving query performance in distributed systems.

Key Features

Architecture patterns for Event Store to Read Model transformations
Full-text search integration templates for Elasticsearch
Support for Live, Catchup, Persistent, and Inline projection types
Pre-built templates for SQL-based order summaries and sales aggregations
Reliable checkpointing logic for resume and restart capabilities
1 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Building optimized CQRS read models for high-performance querying
Generating real-time dashboards and search indexes from historical events
Aggregating transactional data into daily or monthly reporting summaries
