Key benefits

Implement DDD principles to build simple, effective, and well-factored solutions
Use lightweight modeling techniques to arrive at a common collective understanding of the problem domain
Decompose monolithic applications into loosely coupled, distributed components using modern design patterns

Description

Domain-Driven Design (DDD) makes available a set of techniques and patterns that enable domain experts, architects, and developers to work together to decompose complex business problems into a set of well-factored, collaborating, and loosely coupled subsystems. This practical guide will help you as a developer and architect to put your knowledge to work in order to create elegant software designs that are enjoyable to work with and easy to reason about. You'll begin with an introduction to the concepts of domain-driven design and discover various ways to apply them in real-world scenarios. You'll also appreciate how DDD is extremely relevant when creating cloud native solutions that employ modern techniques such as event-driven microservices and fine-grained architectures. As you advance through the chapters, you'll get acquainted with core DDD’s strategic design concepts such as the ubiquitous language, context maps, bounded contexts, and tactical design elements like aggregates and domain models and events. You'll understand how to apply modern, lightweight modeling techniques such as business value canvas, Wardley mapping, domain storytelling, and event storming, while also learning how to test-drive the system to create solutions that exhibit high degrees of internal quality. By the end of this software design book, you'll be able to architect, design, and implement robust, resilient, and performant distributed software solutions.

Who is this book for?

This book is for intermediate Java programmers looking to upgrade their software engineering skills and adopt a collaborative and structured approach to designing complex software systems. Specifically, the book will assist senior developers and hands-on architects to gain a deeper understanding of domain-driven design and implement it in their organization. Familiarity with DDD techniques is not a prerequisite; however, working knowledge of Java is expected.

What you will learn

Discover how to develop a shared understanding of the problem domain
Establish a clear demarcation between core and peripheral systems
Identify how to evolve and decompose complex systems into well-factored components
Apply elaboration techniques like domain storytelling and event storming
Implement EDA, CQRS, event sourcing, and much more
Design an ecosystem of cohesive, loosely coupled, and distributed microservices
Test-drive the implementation of an event-driven system in Java
Grasp how non-functional requirements influence bounded context decompositions

Though DDD has been around for a while, the practical application of the concepts are challenging. The book refreshes the DDD concepts and then delves into the details of how they are applied to real world problems. This book is great for anyone who is missing this critical link.I specially love the simple language and all the visual representations throughout the book.

“A practitioner’s guide” is what caught me. Domain Driven Design is a powerful methodology that can transform technology and innovation, but the process is complex and a difficult concept to teach and also practice in the real world. The accessible format and writing style makes this book stand out among many technical publications.As a professional developer reading this book I was able to understand DDD’s application directly in code. In addition, the authors provided excellent examples and justifications for their strategic and technical choices throughout the DDD walkthrough for an imagined company’s product and overall strategy.I found ways I could apply these strategies to my day-to-day work on my own team. I highly recommend this book to other developers and technical leaders who are looking for a holistic and simultaneously practical education on Domain Driven Design.

A very practical guide that all techies can relate to, written by 2 of the most pragmatic and brilliant technologists that I know of and admire!

Enjoyed reading this book. It is very well explained in simplistic terms and easily understood by folks who are not well-versed in Java

DDD is a very important concept in the industry. Most books or articles I've tried reading to better my understanding of the topic are very difficult to decipher. I usually end up stopping at the first few pages. This book was the complete opposite. I read through 50 pages in one sitting without even realizing the time had gone by. It's a good read for someone who wants to understand DDD at a practical level, with good examples that help register the concepts.
