What is CQRS?

CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation) is a pattern that separates read and update operations for a data store. Implementing CQRS in your application can maximize performance, scalability, and security. The read side (queries) handles data retrieval, optimized for speed and reporting. The write side (commands) handles data modification, focusing on data integrity and business logic. This separation allows each side to be independently scaled and optimized based on its specific needs, often using different data models or storage mechanisms.
