    • lastSequenceNumberFor

      Optional<Long> lastSequenceNumberFor(String aggregateIdentifier)
      Returns the last known sequence number of an Event for the given aggregateIdentifier.

      It is preferred to retrieve the last known sequence number from the Domain Event Stream when sourcing an Aggregate from events. However, this method provides an alternative in cases no events have been read. For example when using state storage.

      Parameters:
      aggregateIdentifier - the identifier of the aggregate to find the highest sequence for
      Returns:
      an optional containing the highest sequence number found, or an empty optional is no events are found for this aggregate
