  • Is your downstream data drifting? - In today's complex and fast-paced business environments, enterprises are often faced with the challenge of managing large amounts of data and ensuring that it is accurate, consistent, and accessible. One of the key pain points that many enterprises face is the loss of accuracy in your downstream data - the data that is passed from one system to another, often through a series of transformations and manipulations. As more and more enterprises adopt event-driven architectures, they are finding that their traditional databases are not well-suited to supporting these systems. In particular, many enterprises have lost control of their downstream data, and are struggling to maintain data quality and consistency. [Event Store blog]
