The digital transformation of higher education is accompanied by growing requirements for the resilience, scalability, and adaptability of educational platforms. Traditional synchronous client-server architectures based on sequential request-response exchange increasingly demonstrate limitations under conditions of high load, mass remote access, and the need for operational processing of learning events. The article considers event-driven architecture as a tool for improving the efficiency of the digital educational environment. The relevance of the study is due to the need to identify not only technical but also pedagogical effects of implementing an event-driven model in educational systems. The aim of the study is to identify and systematize the pedagogical effects arising from the implementation of event-driven architecture in digital educational platforms. The methodological basis of the work includes systemic, activity-based and competency-based approaches. The study uses methods of comparative analysis of architectural patterns, modeling of typical educational scenarios, content analysis of scientific publications, as well as elements of empirical observation within a pilot project implemented at Grozny State Petroleum Technical University using the RabbitMQ message broker. The study found that the use of event-driven architecture helped to reduce the response time of the educational platform, reduce the load on teachers by automating routine operations, expand the possibilities of personalizing educational trajectories, and accumulate a complete digital footprint of learning activity. In pilot operation, a 1.5-fold reduction in the system's primary response time and a twofold reduction in the number of requests to the technical support service due to interface freezes were recorded. The authors propose a classification of pedagogical effects, including didactic, motivational, adaptive, analytical and organizational effects. At the same time, the limitations of implementing the event-driven model are identified and systematized, including event duplication, violation of the order of message processing, the problem of eventual consistency, and the increased complexity of debugging distributed systems. The theoretical significance of the study lies in the development of an interdisciplinary approach to the analysis of the digital educational environment at the intersection of pedagogy and software architecture. The practical significance lies in the possibility of using the research results in the modernization of learning management systems, the design of learning analytics systems, and the implementation of adaptive educational services in universities.
