Microservices Persistence — Database-per-Service, Outbox Pattern & CDC

Database-per-service breaks every cross-entity transactional guarantee this course has relied on so far — the outbox pattern and CDC are the specific tools that restore reliable consistency across independently-owned service databases.

Learning objectives

  • Explain the dual-write problem and why a naive database-update-then-network-call approach is unsafe.
  • Implement the outbox pattern to atomically persist a business change and its corresponding event.
  • Explain what CDC/Debezium does differently from application-level event publishing, and why consumers must be idempotent.
