Event-driven architecture for UK banks, fintechs and regulated firms

In short

Event-driven systems built on Kafka, Kinesis or equivalent with schemas and replay. You need it when multiple systems need to react to the same business event reliably. Event catalogue, schema registry, replay tooling and observability.

What event-driven architecture actually is

Event-driven systems built on Kafka, Kinesis or equivalent with schemas and replay.

When you need it

When multiple systems need to react to the same business event reliably.

What Forth delivers

Event catalogue, schema registry, replay tooling and observability.

The pitfall we don't repeat

Events with no schema and no replay — a distributed system that can't be debugged.

How we engage

Fixed-scope discovery, a 30-day pilot against a real workload, and a continuation engagement with named UK-based engineers. Every artefact is version-controlled and ready for second-line review.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver event-driven architecture as a managed service?

Yes. We can run event-driven architecture as a one-off engagement, as part of a programme, or as a continuous managed service with monthly reporting.

Can you work alongside our in-house team?

Yes — most engagements augment an existing team. We work to your tooling, your standards and your release process, not ours.

What evidence do you produce for our auditors?

Every engagement produces traceable evidence: scenarios mapped to requirements or controls, run logs, defect history and a sign-off pack your second line can use without rework.

How fast can you start?

Most event-driven architecture engagements start within 2-4 weeks of a signed SoW, faster if there's an existing supplier framework in place.
