Functional and Algebraic Domain Modeling

Domain modeling is usually implemented using OO design.In this talk we will take a different approach using Scala:

-Start with focus on verbs first
-Think how we can model domain behaviors using pure functions grouped within extensible modules
-Use an algebraic approach towards evolution of modules, the algebra being composed of functions, types & laws
-See how the domain algebra can be constructed from categorical structures like monoids, functors & monads
Discuss how the functional patterns lead to compositionality – an extremely important quality that scales your domain model.
