Microservices (in Streaming)

Microservices often leverage streaming systems for communication and data sharing in event-driven architectures. Services can publish events to an Event Streaming Platform (like Kafka) when significant state changes occur, and other services (or a stream processor like RisingWave) can consume these events to react, update their own state, or perform real-time analytics. This decouples services and enables scalable, real-time data flow.
