From Domain Boundaries to Software Architecture

Explore the critical connection between domain boundaries and software architecture in this 40-minute conference talk. Dive into the importance of loose coupling in both monoliths and microservices, and learn how to identify elements that change together to create a more robust and flexible codebase. Discover practical techniques from Domain-Driven Design, including Event Storming, Domain Message Flow Modelling, the Bounded Context Canvas, and Core Domain Charts. Gain valuable insights on mapping business domains, organizing them into subdomains, and designing software architecture that aligns with domain boundaries. By the end of this talk, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of how to create loosely-coupled systems that can adapt quickly and safely to new product features and business requirements.
