Quality problems lead to first responders unable to check into disaster sites or parents unable to access ESA funds. So our solution was to start using an intentional contract: Events.

What is more, as the world adopts the event-driven streaming architecture, how does it fit with serverless? The key to event-first systems design is understanding that a series of events captures behavior.
