  • Rails Event Store

    A Ruby implementation of an Event Store based on Active Record

    Does anyone implemented or used a gem such as https://railseventstore.org to support Event Store in their Rails app?

  • Sequent

    CQRS & event sourcing framework for Ruby

    Co-author of the Sequent gem (https://www.sequent.io) here. Can confirm that it’s a great gem to build event sourced applications with (as long as you’re using PostgreSQL). It’s very battle tested as it has been extracted from/used in a web based accounting system that currently holds about 1 billion events in the event store.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • wisper

    A micro library providing Ruby objects with Publish-Subscribe capabilities

    I haven't used it, but we're also considering it in our app for quite some time. Our main issue is mostly that our codebase is super coupled, especially some older code, and using events as a means of communication between different modules of the app can be nice way of decoupling things. I think this is the most common usecase, and for this you don't necessarily even need to persist the events, and also something like wisper might be useful https://github.com/krisleech/wisper.
