Virtual | Mathias Verraes: DDD Modelling vs Implementation

 

The design patterns from Domain-Driven Design are gradually entering the collective consciousness of software developers. But most of the information out there focuses on mechanistic implementation details of the patterns: how to make an Entity in [insert favourite programming language], how to use the Repository pattern with [insert new hot ORM], how to make immutable Value Objects in [insert legacy framework]...

Applied individually, these patterns are useful, but are not giving you the full potential of Domain-Driven Design.

This one day training has a different approach. We address technical concerns in implementing the DDD patterns, but the focus is on the underlying principles and heuristics for building great domain-centric object-oriented code.

  • Why you’re underusing Value Objects
  • Seeing objects as containers of lifecycles and consistency
  • Discovering deeper domain concepts such as business rules, and lifting them into first class domain objects
  • The relevance of processes, behaviour, temporal modelling... for finding better Aggregate boundaries
  • How mutable software designs have distorted our perception of mutability in the domain
  • Better heuristics for understanding a complex domain, and using them to drive a more focused design
  • Reducing our dependence on service classes
  • Designing an implementation model that not only encapsulates the domain, but communicates that design to future programmers and reduces their surface area for bugs
  • ...

This workshop, aimed at programmers, is designed to give you immediate benefits when modelling and implementing the most important parts of your codebase.
