Additional Notes
Why is maintaining eventual consistency challenging in microservices?

Topic: Microservice Architecture
Focus: Eventual Consistency (Sagas)
Java: Eventual Consistency (Sagas)
Answer
Due to asynchronous updates and network reliability issues.
In microservices, data consistency across services is achieved eventually rather than immediately, due to network latencies and asynchronous communication. For example, an order service might process an order immediately, but the inventory update might take a few seconds to propagate, leading to a temporary inconsistency.
