Q: Transaction Management across decoupled services using event-driven approach

[bon9it]

I'm curious about the under-the-hood idea of using event-driven Eventual Consistency instead of traditional Distributed Transaction.

I'm really sorry if my question is too general. I did try to research through so many discussions, then I found this fantastic example, which is the most meaningful resource for me.

Could you please give me few comparisons between them? Are there any best practices? I don't prefer Distributed Transaction, but I could not prove myself to use another approach.
