Free eBook/Guide on ‘.NET Microservices – Architecture for Containerized .NET Applications’

Cesar De la Torre May 10, 2017 May 10, 2017 05/10/17

The microservices architecture is emerging as an important approach for distributed mission-critical applications.

In addition, enterprises are increasingly realizing cost savings, ...

Domain Events vs. Integration Events in Domain-Driven Design and microservices architectures

Cesar De la Torre February 7, 2017 Feb 7, 2017 02/7/17

This blog post is about comparing several approaches of Domain Events vs. Integration Events patterns already published by the community. I might evolve this post depending on feedback and some implementations we’ll be doing in the short/medium term. So, feel free to discuss about it with comments at the end of this post. I’m open to ...

Cesar De la Torre January 12, 2012 Jan 12, 2012 01/12/12

I am collaborating with the patterns & practices team. We are considering doing a guidance project on implementing systems using the Command & Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) approach. This is not going to be a framework or reusable components. We are positioning this project as a learning journey and envision providing an ...

We completed the IASA-DDD Conference! (November 7th 2011)

Cesar De la Torre November 9, 2011 Nov 9, 2011 11/9/11

It was a remarkable DDD (Domain Driven Design) event in Madrid, Spain. We got around 150 attendees!!, and taking into account that this is the inaugural event from the IASA-Spain association, and this association was almost unknown in Spain, until now, it is something I must highlight. Of course, having the keynotes delivered by Eric Evans and...

Implementing a Value-Object Base class (Supertype pattern–DDD patterns related)

Cesar De la Torre June 6, 2011 Jun 6, 2011 06/6/11

It is usually a recommended practice to have Value-Object base-class so we can have common functionality which can be used by all of our value-object classes. Typically, comparison methods or any other common subject for Value-Objects, should be included here. Below I show a sample Value-Object Base-Class...

Don’t like EF 4.1 ‘Data Annotations’ for DDD Architectures implementation –’Fluent API’ fits better for that!

About DDD Architectural styles, here it is our Architecture Guide (Though we are actually writing its second edition, adding EF 4.1 Code-First approach). But most DDD Architectural ...
