Author: Implementing Domain-Driven Design. Author: Reactive Enterprise with Actor Model.
Vaughn Vernon is a veteran software craftsman and thought leader in simplifying software design and implementation. He has been programming with object-oriented languages since the 1980s and applying the tenets of Domain-Driven Design since his Smalltalk domain modeling days in the early 1990s. He consults and speaks internationally, and has taught his Implementing Domain-Driven Design classes on most continents.
Author: “Implementing Domain-Driven Design” published by Addison-Wesley. Presents a top-down approach to understanding DDD in a way that fluently connects strategic patterns to lower level tactical programming tools. Vaughn couples guided approaches to implementation within modern architectural styles, highlighting the importance and value of focusing on the business domain while balancing technical considerations. He presents concrete and realistic DDD techniques through examples from familiar domains. Each principle is backed up by realistic examples.
