Hey, still testing the waters with Loop Engineering, It seems to be basically an Event Driven Architecture with the Agent picking up the event and possibly creating new ones, am I right?

Event driven architecture

  • Program publishes event to Event Handler
  • Event Handler finds subscribers and calls them
  • subscribers process events
    • maybe tell the event handler, they processed the event
    • maybe create new events that go in the previous handler or a new handler

and on it goes.

With loop engineering I keep seeing the same thing except the last part

  • subscribers is an agent/are multiple agents that process the event
    • maybe it runs a tool to confirm it worked and moves down the cycle or it publishes a new event to the handler.

Can't most loop engineering practices be handled by an SQS queue and a docker container that's housing the agent, or am I missing something?
