Uniqueness of Scala

* The declared type of a symbol is given after the symbol and a colon. The declared type can often be omitted, because the compiler can infer it from the context.

* A mixin is a class that provides certain functionality to be inherited by a subclass and isn’t meant for instantiation by itself. A mixin could also be viewed as an interface with implemented methods.

* Array types are written Array[T] rather than T[], and array selections are written a(i) rather than a[i].

* Functions can be nested inside other functions. Nested functions can access parameters and local variables of enclosing functions. For instance, the name of the array xs is visible in functions swap and sort1, and therefore need not be passed as a parameter to them.

Event Sourcing with CQRS.

  The way event sourcing works with CQRS is to have  part of the application that models updates as writes to an event log or Kafka topic . This is paired with an event handler that subscribes to the Kafka topic, transforms the event (as required) and writes the materialized view to a read store.

GraphQL microservices (GQLMS)

I'm curios of GraphQL !     -  GraphQL is an open-source data query and manipulation language for APIs, and a runtime for fulfilling queries with existing data. GraphQL was developed internally by Facebook in 2012 before being publicly released in 2015. It should be solving a problem in querying data !     -GraphQL lets you ask for what you want in a single query, saving bandwidth and reducing waterfall requests. It also enables clients to request their own unique data specifications. A case study ?!    -https://netflixtechblog.com/beyond-rest-1b76f7c20ef6 So, This is just another database technoloy ?  -  No. GraphQL is often confused with being a database technology. This is a misconception, GraphQL is a   query language   for APIs - not databases. In that sense it’s database agnostic and can be used with any kind of database or even no database at all.
