Domain-Driven Design – DDD

Domain-driven development (DDD) is an approach to software design that focuses on the core domain and the logic that drives a business. The idea is to model the software based on real-world business concepts, ensuring that the code closely reflects the domain it is meant to serve.

Key aspects of DDD include:

  1. Domain Model: A shared understanding of the business logic, defined in terms meaningful to domain experts and developers.

  2. Ubiquitous Language: A common language shared by technical and non-technical stakeholders to describe the domain, ensuring clarity and reducing miscommunication.

  3. Bounded Contexts: Distinct areas within a larger system where a specific domain model applies. Each context can evolve independently while being integrated with others.

  4. Entities and Value Objects: Entities have unique identities, while value objects are immutable and are defined only by their properties.

  5. Aggregates: Clusters of related objects treated as a unit, ensuring consistency in business operations.

  6. Repositories and Services: Repositories handle data access, while services implement business operations that don’t belong to a single entity.

DDD emphasizes collaboration between developers and domain experts to ensure software design mirrors business processes and terminology.

A particularly important part of DDD is the notion of Strategic Design - how to organize large domains into a network of Bounded Contexts. [1]

Why is this important for your business?

The design it proposes puts our focus on the core domain and the business logic, which makes our product relevant and where it differentiates from competitors. The DDD design boosts the understanding of what our application does instead of which technology (framework, dependencies) it uses.

Domain-Driven Design is an approach to software development that centers the development on programming a domain model that has a rich understanding of the processes and rules of a domain. The name comes from a 2003 book by Eric Evans that describes the approach through a catalog of patterns. Since then a community of practitioners have further developed the ideas, spawning various other books and training courses. The approach is particularly suited to complex domains, where a lot of often-messy logic needs to be organized. [1]

We will see more about how this translates to our code as we understand the key aspects to be expanded in future posts.

OWASP Top 10 Explained: SQL Injection

SQL Injection (SQLi) is a code injection technique that exploits a security vulnerability occurring in the database layer of an application.

The vulnerability is present when user inputs are either improperly filtered for string literal escape characters embedded in SQL statements or user input is not strongly typed and thereby unexpectedly executed.

This allows an attacker to manipulate SQL queries, enabling them to unauthorized access, modify, and delete data in the database. This can lead to significant breaches of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, ranging from unauthorized viewing of data to complete database compromise.

What is Domain-Driven Design (DDD)

A definition of DDD as a software design discipline

How to refactor without overtime and missed deadlines

A lot of software engineers, including myself, are passionate about code quality. This striving for a well-shaped codebase, while getting things done could cost one quite a few hours and nerves, though. I'm constantly looking for ways to achieve these two goals without significant trade-offs. Stand by for the current state.

How to test a PHP app? PHP unit testing and more

Do you really need to create tests? Of course, there are many reasons to do so – improved quality of software, decreased risks while making changes in the code, identifying errors, checking business requirements, improving security…I could go on and on with that. The point is – tests do make a difference.

Application Modernization Isn’t Just Fighting Legacy Tech

When radical innovations were rare, businesses could afford to treat application modernization as a sporadic reaction to change. A decade ago, most organizations modernized only when they were compelled to.

However, in the era of open-source and continuous innovation, modernization can’t be an isolated, one-off project. Businesses need to embrace a culture that celebrates change to thrive in the digital age. According to a report by F5, the past year has witnessed 133% growth in application modernization.

Responsible tech playbook

As technology becomes more central to peoples' lives, and to what businesses do, and how they succeed, the ethics of technology must come into sharper focus.

Despite technology becoming a critical part of what enterprizes do, it's not always clear how to approach and apply technology in an ethical or responsible way.

The Responsible tech playbook is a collection of tools, methods, and frameworks that help you to assess, model and mitigate values and risks of the software you are creating with a special emphasis on the impact of your work on the individual and society.

How Exception to the Convention Does More Harm than Good

We have a project, and to make it easier, we use specific standards. E.g., we use spaces in every file.

But sometimes, we get to a situation when these standards are stressful. We don't understand them and just want them to bend over. How does our short-term need for pleasure affects long-term well-being of the project?

Your Jest Tests are Leaking Memory

Jest is designed in a way that makes memory leaks likely if you’re not actively trying to squash them. For many test suites this isn’t a problem because even if tests leak memory, the tests don’t use enough memory to actually cause a crash. That is, until you add one more test and suddenly the suite comes apart. In this article, we’ll walk through why it’s so easy for Jest to leak memory, how to tell if your tests have a memory leak, and then how to debug and eliminate leaks in your tests. Even if you don’t use Jest, it’s still useful to understand the process in case you need to debug memory leaks in other javascript code.

How to handle flaky tests

Flaky tests are automated tests that are non-deterministic. That means they may pass or fail when executed against the same build artifact or deployed system.

If you’ve ever retried the execution of a failed test run in your CI/CD pipeline tool without any code or config changes in order to get a failing test case to pass, that’s an indicator that you have a flaky test case.

Why Serverless Teams Should Embrace Continuous Refactoring

Serverless adoption brings promises to many organizations! Promises of cost efficiency, engineering efficiency, and business efficiency. However, serverless is not a technology that, once successfully adopted, can be left unattended to rust.

The motivation to adopt serverless should never be to get the job done and never look back. If you adopt it with this attitude you will inevitably get into the legacy migration juggernaut that will haunt you much sooner than you anticipated.

CQRS Is an Anti-Pattern for DDD

Are you interested in new ways to build better software systems? If you work with distributed systems or build any kind of web application, you most likely have heard of the new trends like using Domain-Driven Design with Event-Sourcing and Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS). Well, they are not exactly brand new. However, they are now becoming increasingly popular.

The Tighten Test: 12 Steps to a Better Team

Twenty years ago today, Joel Spolsky (who later co-founded Stack Overflow) published The Joel Test: 12 Steps to Better Code listing 12 metrics for rating the quality of a software development team. The premise is simple: you get 1 point for each “yes” answer, for a total score of up to 12 points.

Why Write ADRs

Architecture decision records, also known as ADRs, are a great way to document how and why a decision was reached within a codebase. We’ve started to adopt them within the mobile team here at GitHub, documenting decisions that affect the iOS codebase and Android codebase, as well as decisions that affect both mobile clients.

ADRs are not the most common within open source codebases, but have gained more popularity since ~2017 within long-lived, “evolutionary” codebases like those in more enterprise-y settings.

So why write an ADR? Why spend time documenting something when a decision has already been made?

SQL Optimizations in PostgreSQL: IN vs EXISTS vs ANY/ALL vs JOIN

This is one of the most common questions asked by developers who write SQL queries against the PostgreSQL database. There are multiple ways in which a sub select or lookup can be framed in a SQL statement. PostgreSQL optimizer is very smart at optimizing queries, and many of the queries can be rewritten/transformed for better performance.
