Hi everyone,
So my team is creating a proof-of-concept suite of microservices using Axon Framework. When we started v3.3.5 was the latest version so that’s what we’re using.
First, a little description. We have two bounded contexts - let’s call them “reporting” and “verification.” Each context contains one microservice at the moment. Both microservices are running on top of Spring Boot. Since these two microservices need to talk to each other we created an anti-corruption layer (ACL) between them. Each microservice receives commands via Spring Cloud, and each microservice dispatches events via Kafka. The ACL subscribes to the Kafka topic and translates events from one microservice into commands for the other. The ACL uses a Saga class to handle the events. So far this is working just great.
However, we don’t really want both microservices putting their events in the same Kafka topic. We’d like each of them to have their own topic. After searching through this Google Group and reading through the source code a bit it seems we can accomplish this using two Tracking Event Processors - one for each topic. So, my first question is - is that correct?
Assuming it is I imagine you’d somehow associate the existing Saga to both Tracking Event Processors? How would you go about configuring these Tracking Event Processors with Spring Boot?
Appreciate the help!
