ESDB has this smart functionality that allows maintaining less subscriptions if all the event handlers are live. In Eventuous context it would work like this:
- Each subscription (group of handlers) is independent and can start from its own checkpoint
- When subscription groups are catching up, they keep running independently
- When a group starts to run live it switches to a single catch-up subscription, which runs live. The catch-up subscription used by the group gets disposed.
- When all the groups run live, there's only one physical catch-up subscription running
- If a particular group starts lagging behind, it switches to its own catch-up subscription
As a result, when all the groups are running live, there's only one physical catch-up subscription to the database, so there's less traffic and less read pressure on the database.
