Eseménybuszok

Eseménybuszok, often translated as "event buses," are a fundamental architectural pattern in software development, particularly prevalent in distributed systems and event-driven architectures. At its core, an event bus acts as a central communication hub where different components of a system can publish events and subscribe to events of interest. This decoupling allows for loosely coupled systems, meaning components don't need to know directly about each other's existence or implementation details.

When a component produces an event, it publishes it to the event bus without needing to know who, if anyone, will consume it. Other components, known as subscribers or listeners, register their interest in specific types of events with the bus. When an event is published that matches a subscriber's registered interest, the event bus delivers that event to all relevant subscribers. This publish-subscribe model is the defining characteristic of an event bus.

The benefits of using an event bus include improved scalability, as new components can be added or removed without affecting existing ones. It also enhances maintainability and testability by isolating components. Furthermore, event buses facilitate asynchronous communication, allowing different parts of a system to operate independently and at their own pace, which can lead to better performance and responsiveness. Common implementations of event buses can be found in various programming languages and frameworks, often as part of messaging queues or dedicated event-driven libraries.
