Interface SnapshotEventStore

All Superinterfaces:

EventStore

All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface SnapshotEventStore
extends EventStore

Interface describing an event store that is able to store snapshot events. Implementations must also take the stored snapshots into account when loading events. That means that any call to readEvents(String, AggregateIdentifier) should return an event stream that starts with the latest suitable snapshot event available in the event store.
