Your B2B SaaS starts simple. You save a user. You move fast.
Then you add features. Your registration controller now does ten things.
It handles billing. It updates Slack. It creates workspaces. It sends emails.
One API fails. Your whole registration process crashes. This is a tightly coupled monolith.
Switch to Event-Driven Architecture.
Your application states an event happened. It returns a response to the user immediately.
Background listeners handle the tasks.
If one listener fails, the system stays online.
Follow these steps in Laravel:
- Create an event class. This class holds your data.
- Create asynchronous listeners. Use the ShouldQueue interface. This moves work to Redis workers.
- Dispatch the event in your controller.
Your controller stays lean. Responses take milliseconds.
You add new features by adding new listeners. You do not touch your core code.
Your system becomes modular. Your app stays stable.
