Is Domain-Driven Design Overrated? • Stefan Tilkov • GOTO 2021

This presentation was recorded at GOTOpia Chicago 2021. #GOTOcon #GOTOpia http://gotochgo.com Stefan Tilkov - Co-founder & Principal Consultant at INNOQ ABSTRACT Yes, there is a life beyond DDD. In the best sense of pattern languages, domain-driven design gives clear names to things that many developers and designers know how to do, but cannot reliably and compatibly communicate about. But like other very popular approaches, it is sometimes treated as if it were the only viable design strategy. In this talk we’ll look at DDD’s contributions as well as some of the misunderstandings and misuses that come with the hype surrounding it. We’ll try to derive some useful guidelines for treating domain-driven design in particular, and software design hypes in general [...] TIMECODES 00:00 Intro 00:26 What is DDD? 04:27 Key aspect 1: Ubiquitous language 04:52 Key aspect 2: Tactical patterns 06:13 Key aspect 3: Strategic design 07:00 Bounded contexts 09:29 Conceptual extensibility 15:15 Should design be domain-driven? 26:30 Contexts revisited 27:38 Is DDD overrated? 31:05 Outro Download slides and read the full abstract here: https://gotochgo.com/2021/sessions/1778/is-domain-driven-design-overrated RECOMMENDED BOOKS Simon Brown • Software Architecture for Developers Vol. 2 • https://leanpub.com/visualising-software-architecture Mark Richards & Neal Ford • Fundamentals of Software Architecture • https://amzn.to/3qmELt7 Gregor Hohpe • The Software Architect Elevator • https://amzn.to/3tY8evH Michael Keeling • Design It! • https://amzn.to/37y4OGH George Fairbanks • Just Enough Software Architecture • https://amzn.to/3bbjqg3 Nick Rozanski & Eoin Woods • Software Systems Architecture • https://amzn.to/3ajYjsv Peter Coad, Eric Lefebvre & Jeff de Luca • Java Modeling In Color With UML • https://amzn.to/3bVDTHd Eric Evans • Domain-Driven Design • https://amzn.to/3tnGhwm Grady Booch, James Rumbaugh & Ivar Jacobson • The Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual • https://amzn.to/2OA1Qv1 https://twitter.com/GOTOcon https://www.linkedin.com/company/goto- https://www.instagram.com/goto_con https://www.facebook.com/GOTOConferences #DDD #DomainDrivenDesign #SoftwareArchitecture #UX #UI #Udriven #StefanTilkov CHANNEL MEMBERSHIP BONUS Join this channel to get early access to videos & other perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs_tLP3AiwYKwdUHpltJPuA/join Looking for a unique learning experience?
