Title: Practical Domain Driven Design, Message Based Architectures and CQRS
Presenter: Jak Charlton
Abstract:
The original book on Domain Driven Design was subtitled “Tackling Complexity in the Heart of Software”, and even where a system does not merit “full on” DDD, many of the practices and principles can massively reduce the complexity of software, especially when combined with messaging and events.
