Core Concepts
1. Event Store Architecture

2. Event Store Requirements
| Requirement | Description |
|---|---|
| Append-only | Events are immutable, only appends |
| Ordered | Per-stream and global ordering |
| Versioned | Optimistic concurrency control |
| Subscriptions | Real-time event notifications |
| Idempotent | Handle duplicate writes safely |
