DDD - Desperately Destroying Death stars

What are Deathstars? What to do about them?

This month John Nicholas will take a look at the evolution of architectural patterns, past, present and future - from DDD through CQRS to the recent emergence of actor systems.
And as a bonus he'll blow up some assumptions along the way.

Speaker

John is has 20 years experience in software, working with companies big, small and start-ups and even running some of them. He loves turning half baked ideas into machines that make money for other people and demonstrating the value in keeping everything simple and fast.
