Unified data view across Microservices: Temporal and Dozer?
2 points by snork_alt on May 25, 2023 | hide | past | favorite
Hey HN,

As one of the co-founders of Dozer (https://github.com/getdozer/dozer), I stumbled upon this awesome article from the Temporal folks (https://temporal.io/blog/saga-pattern-made-easy) and got super excited about the potential synergy between Dozer and Temporal.

While Temporal nails the orchestration of microservices, I couldn't help but notice the challenge of consolidating data across services. In the article, they talk about three services: flight booking, hotel booking, and experience booking. But imagine trying to create a complete trip view by stitching together data from all three services - it can be quite a headache!

And that's where Dozer swoops in to save the day. With Dozer, I can tap into all the change data capture (CDC) events from each microservice, merge the data in real-time, stash it in a cache, and make it available through APIs. The best part? Since Dozer operates in real-time, my cached data is always fresh. Boom! Now I can simply leverage Dozer's APIs to access a comprehensive trip view.

Raise your hand if you've faced this challenge before! Let's hear your thoughts.
