Hands-On Domain-Driven Design with .NET Core

By: Alexey Zimarev

Overview of this book

Developers across the world are rapidly adopting DDD principles to deliver powerful results when writing software that deals with complex business requirements. This book will guide you in involving business stakeholders when choosing the software you are planning to build for them. By figuring out the temporal nature of behavior-driven domain models, you will be able to build leaner, more agile, and modular systems. You’ll begin by uncovering domain complexity and learn how to capture the behavioral aspects of the domain language. You will then learn about EventStorming and advance to creating a new project in .NET Core 2.1; you’ll also and write some code to transfer your events from sticky notes to C#. The book will show you how to use aggregates to handle commands and produce events. As you progress, you’ll get to grips with Bounded Contexts, Context Map, Event Sourcing, and CQRS. After translating domain models into executable C# code, you will create a frontend for your application using Vue.js. In addition to this, you’ll learn how to refactor your code and cover event versioning and migration essentials. By the end of this DDD book, you will have gained the confidence to implement the DDD approach in your organization and be able to explore new techniques that complement what you’ve learned from the book.

Summary

In this chapter, we have learned what EventStorming is, and why every team would benefit from organizing such a workshop with domain experts, that is, to gain domain knowledge and decrease ignorance. We also looked at some practical tips on how an EventStorming session can be arranged and facilitated.

The final part of this chapter is about the model for our sample business. We discussed the business flow, identified many events and some hotspots, gaining a significant amount of insight into what kind of system we are going to build during this book.

We have briefly touched on the behavioral aspect of EventStorming, but there is more to it, which we cannot cover in this book due to the broad nature of this topic. Check out the next section to find references to Alberto Brandolini's work, and study the referenced materials to learn more about people, their biases and...
