"In many conversations, and in many comments here, you hear phrases like "well that's not really suited to DDD" or "DDD isn't the best fit for that problem". You even see those kind of comments on my blog, and often they are posted by me."

"I'm passionate about Domain Driven Design (DDD). Like many experienced object modellers, I was practicing this long before Eric Evans coined that specific term, though I have sinced learned some useful specific patterns from his book. To me, DDD is about two things: focussing on the business functionality rather than on the technical implementation; and focussing on building a good model of the business domain rather than just on the specific immediate requirements. Like many others, I perceived that the key to this was to model the domain as behaviourally-complete domain objects: to actively resist the tendency to separate business functionality from the persistent domain entities."

"As a book and methodology, DDD is an excellent way to approach complex software problems, and make them far more understandable and manageable. As a buzzword, DDD is in danger of being corrupted like many other good software practices."

"Domain Driven Design (DDD) is an approach of how to model the core logic of an application. The term itself was coined by Eric Evans in his book "Domain Driven Design". The basic idea is that the design of your software should directly reflect the Domain and the Domain-Logic of the (business-) problem you want to solve with your application. That helps understanding the problem as well as the implementation and increases maintainability of the software."

"This site has been setup to replace the creaking and aging site at dddstepbystep.com, which for all it's plus points, was proving impossible to maintain. Sorry Community Server you had to go!"

" I've been hearing from people that have had a great deal of success using the Domain Event pattern and the infrastructure I previously provided for it in Domain Events - Take 2. I'm happy to say that I've got an improvement that I think you'll like. The main change is that now we'll be taking an approach that is reminiscent to how events are published in NServiceBus."
