We have spent enough time discussing how to ensure domain model consistency with explicitly defined business rules. In this chapter, we will go further with persisting our aggregates to the database. Since our model is not being designed around any database, we might encounter issues when trying to get a complex object graph to be stored by using a database engine. That's because the database does not work with objects. Instead, relational databases are optimized to store data in tables that might have relations that use primary and foreign keys. Document databases store objects in machine-readable formats, like JSON, and are, by definition, able to persist complex object graphs as-is; however, we shouldn't fool ourselves, since there are still serious constraints about how these objects need to be organized so that the database client library can...

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.
