Key API Patterns
Optimistic Concurrency (CRITICAL)
ALWAYS use expected revision for aggregates:
NO_STREAM- Creating new aggregate (stream must not exist)StreamExists- Appending to existing stream- Specific revision number - Prevent concurrent modifications
Subscriptions
- Catch-up: Read history + live events. Use for projections.
- Persistent: Server-managed with ACK/NACK. Use for reliable processing.
System Streams
$ce-{category}- All events from streams matching pattern (e.g.,$ce-orderfororder-*)$et-{eventType}- All events of a type (e.g.,$et-OrderCreated)
