Explore DDD 2017 – Denver, Sept. 21-22
It was their first multi-year project as a young consulting company, and while they all had experience building projects using DDD, it was their first major effort as a team. It was also their client's first DDD project, as well as their first Agile project. With all of these firsts, Jimmy and his team were determined to do things by the book. They debated endlessly the different ways of implementing the DDD patterns, consulted the experts, and even became experts in their own right.
They shipped, and their clients were happy but they were not entirely pleased with the results. It wasn't until years later they understood what we had created – a Monolith!
A few years later, they got the opportunity to embark on a new multi-year effort in a nearly identical domain with nearly identical constraints.
In this talk, Jimmy explores where they went wrong in the first project and how they right their wrongs, using concepts and techniques from both DDD and microservices, to a solution that they could finally say they were completely happy with.
