KurrentDB Operations
The smooth ongoing operation of one or more KurrentDB (formerly EventStoreDB) clusters in production is critical to a stable application. Understanding the best practices for clustering, node replacement, backups and replication is critical for achieving this. The following series of video courses will ensure your team - whether developing applications or focused on cluster operations - has a strong understanding of how KurrentDB operates "under the hood."
Throughout the series, you will learn how to set up and manage KurrentDB clusters, backup and restore databases, optimize throughput and responsiveness, scale the system, avoid common issues and troubleshoot issues, and much, much more.

Event streams
Tailored for event storage, EventStoreDB surpasses traditional databases by allowing the storage of every state change as a distinct event. This capability means that instead of just keeping the latest state, you can track the entire history of changes, organized logically into streams—usually one per entity.
Indexes
With a design that stores indexes separately from data files, EventStoreDB ensures swift access to records by stream name, creating index entries with each committed event.
As more files are saved, EventStoreDB efficiently merges them to maintain a streamlined and accessible data structure.

Projections
This powerful subsystem within EventStoreDB allows for the dynamic response to events by appending new events or linking existing ones to streams.
Especially adept at handling “temporal correlation queries”—a common yet complex query type in business systems—projections offer a specialized solution that few databases can match.

Subscriptions
Staying updated with changes is seamless with EventStoreDB subscriptions. As new events are recorded, you can automatically receive notifications, ensuring your system remains in sync and responsive to the latest developments.
