Architecture

Whether it’s live updates for customers or seamless data flows among partners, instant response is now the baseline. But is your architecture built for real-time demands?

Our take on
Event-Driven Architecture (EDA).

Event-Driven Architecture isn’t something you just switch on. You grow into it. Moving from rigid, request-based integrations to scalable, event-driven systems takes more than just technology. It requires the right strategy, structure, and mindset to grow with your goals. 

How we bring EDA to life: 

Clarity: Mapping your EDA maturity sets a clear direction for everyone involved. 

Common ground: Alignment across IT, business, and management turns EDA from a black box into a shared, visible journey. 

Community building: Strong internal and external API communities to drive lasting adoption.

Why EDA
can’t wait.

If real time is out of reach, so is your growth. Here’s what we see in the field when EDA isn’t in play:

Rigid, synchronous integrations

Systems rely on scheduled updates and blocking calls instead of reacting in real time. 

EDA

Complex, slow processes

Workflows are tightly coupled, making every change risky and time-consuming.

Event Driven Architecture

Limited scalability

Adding new services risks breaking existing flows.

Applied Observability

Low observability and governance

Events move through unnoticed, with no clear ownership or enforced standards.

From rigid to highly
scalable with EDA.

Scalable, modular and built for real-time. Event-Driven Architecture reshapes how systems evolve, adapt, and respond. By aligning a clear, real-time architecture roadmap with your business goals, we enable: 

Faster integration and partner onboarding

without breaking existing systems. 

Observable, secure and governed

event flows across your IT landscape.

A future-proof foundation

for AI, analytics and composable business models.

Scalable, event-driven. Let’s go!

How we help you succeed
with Event-Driven Architecture.

Advisory

Advising on event-driven architecture means guiding an ecosystem that never stands still. We help you stay ahead by challenging your vision, refining strategic choices, and ensuring every event flow adds real business value.  

 

With continuous guidance from our EDA and integration architects, your EDA evolves with the rhythm of your organization. 

How we advise you

Strategy Definition

Defining an event-driven architecture strategy starts with understanding how your business creates and consumes value through events. Together, we translate that understanding into a clear vision, aligned with your business goals and operating model. 

 

Through collaborative workshops, we map event flows, identify key domains, and define the architectural principles that form the backbone of your event-driven ecosystem. This process results in a technology strategy and reference architecture that form the foundation for scalable event streaming and real-time insight. Together, they enable smooth, data-driven interactions across your organization. 

How we define your strategy

Assessment

Through focused workshops and one-on-one interviews, we find out how your organization applies event-driven principles today. We identify which event flows work well, where risks or gaps remain, and where new opportunities lie. 

 

Our assessment takes a vendor-independent approach and looks holistically at your integration landscape, domain design, and governance, always in line with your business and IT strategy.  

 

The outcome is a clear report that brings structure and direction to your EDA journey. No endless pages of technical jargon, but key findings, clear conclusions, and concrete actions for both business and IT. 

How we run your assessment

Maturity Models

Event-Driven Architecture often runs quietly in the background, making it difficult to see its full impact. The real challenge lies in steering it toward measurable business value. Our EDA Maturity Model brings clarity by revealing where your organization stands today. Are your event flows enabling real-time decisions, or are they hidden in complexity? Is your EDA strategy truly aligned with your business goals? 

Together, we define what a mature event-driven ecosystem looks like for your organization, map where you are today, and turn those insights into a clear roadmap with concrete actions. As maturity grows, progress becomes visible step by step. This makes the model a powerful guide for continuous improvement and long-term value. 

How we map your maturity

Roadmap

An effective EDA roadmap starts with understanding your business goals and challenges. Through workshops and maturity models, we uncover opportunities and define clear actions. From there, the roadmap takes shape, outlining priorities and platform choices for your real-time journey.  

 

By assessing your integration landscape and aligning governance with business goals, we ensure your EDA evolves in sync with your organization. 

How we run your assessment

Project Implementation

We bring your EDA roadmap to life using proven integration architecture expertise, event-driven design patterns, and best practices.  

Every implementation is designed for reliability and adaptability, so event flows keep supporting real-time insights, faster decisions, and new digital services.

FAQs
Event-Driven Architecture.

Key questions that come up as we help organisations put Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) into practice. 

Event-Driven Architecture, or EDA, is a design approach where systems respond to events as they happen. Unlike traditional architectures that rely on scheduled updates, EDA enables real-time responsiveness. It supports agility, faster decision-making and seamless integration across distributed systems. That makes it a natural fit for both modern enterprises and government organizations in today’s dynamic, always-on world. 

EDA decouples services and uses asynchronous communication. This allows systems to react independently without waiting on others. New components can be added or updated without disrupting the whole. That means your architecture scales more easily and responds faster, even in complex IT landscapes. 

EDA helps your business move faster. It reduces delays, improves visibility and supports systems that evolve continuously. For the business, this means better customer experiences, stronger partner collaboration and greater resilience. EDA also lays the foundation for innovation by making your architecture more adaptive and future-ready. 

Customers expect instant updates, whether it’s tracking an order or checking account info. EDA makes that possible by letting systems respond the moment something happens. No waiting for scheduled processes. Just real-time data flowing to the right place, delivering faster service and smoother digital experiences. 

In EDA, governance is essential. With many moving parts, you need clear ownership, standards and coordination to avoid fragmentation. Governance keeps your architecture aligned with business goals and ensures quality over time. At Archers, we integrate governance from the start, with enterprise architects who understand both the organization and its technology. 

We guide organizations through every step of their EDA journey. From shaping the strategy to setting up the platform, we bring the right expertise at the right time. Our enterprise architects define the vision and structure. Our analysts and solution architects turn that into smart design and solid delivery. And through our CBX network, you get the experts to build and scale a platform that fits your goals. 

Build the real-time foundations that keep businesses ahead.
