Mastering Domain-Driven Design: From Business Ideas to APIs

Annegret Junker, Chief Software Architect at Codecentric, talks about her new Book "Mastering Domain-Driven Design: Collaborative modeling with domain storytelling, event storming, and context mapping". This conversation explores how domain-driven design (DDD) can help teams move from initial business ideas to well-structured APIs — quickly, collaboratively, and effectively.

📘 Topics covered include:

Why Annegret wrote Mastering Domain-Driven Design
How to use the Business Model Canvas and Wardley Mapping to identify business priorities
Domain Storytelling as a visual technique for shared understanding
Event Storming for exploring business processes and data flows
Context Mapping to define bounded contexts and derive API boundaries
Leveraging language models (LLMs) to generate OpenAPI specifications from context maps

Whether you're a software architect, API designer, or just curious about applying DDD in practice, this video offers actionable insights from real-world experience.
