The need to measure outcomes and business value for software development, and the shift from Project to Product , require the deployment of a scalable and turnkey VSM solution. CIO: “I wish I could give a definitive answer. Bottlenecks from internal processes and a dated software architecture severely affected morale.

This gets tricky at times when collaborating with different companies or communities that use different definitions. To reduce undesired ambiguity in communication consider using the specific definitions. I encounter this problem quite frequently when the word domain is used in the context of business and software architecture.

Domain-Driven Design is an approach to designing systems, usually software, that emphasises creating a common language between domain experts and system builders. However, some concepts in DDD do not have a clear definition and are highly implicit. This definition of a domain is very fuzzy. Thank you to all involved.

Context Overview Definition Begin by filling in the name of your bounded context and a description. Once you complete the following steps, repeat the process until you have defined all of your bounded contexts. Try to approximately divide your time equally between the number of candidate bounded contexts you identified.

The microservices era has been good for software architecture. A domain service builds on the basic definition of a microservice: it’s a loosely-coupled, independently deployable element of software architecture which is owned by a single team. I remember when the idea of multiple databases was punishable by death.
