Domain-Driven Transformation - Modularizing and Modernizing Legacy Software

Hello everyone,

We have an exciting meetup coming up for you! Henning Schwentner from WPS, also one of the co-organizers of our ComoCamp, is going to join us to talk about Domain-Driven Transformation. He's recently written a book about this topic together with Carola Lilienthal, and, as we've already read it, we can assure you it is awesome material. So join us for an interesting meetup on October 8!

See you there,
Daniel and Fabian

• 19:00 Food & drinks sponsored by TechTalk
• 19:30 Close doors

About the talk:
Today we know very well how to start a new project on a green field and how to build a good architecture. But most of us work in projects that have been around for a long time and whose architecture (to put it mildly) is not quite so beautiful. “Monolith” and “Big Ball of Mud” are the unflattering labels put on such systems.

This talk will show how we can introduce (or bring back) structure. Every system is different here, so it’s important to first understand where you are. Then the right steps have to be taken. I present a catalog of refactorings to choose from and heuristics which are the right choices.

The catalog contains refactorings that help to cure: BBOM architecture, anemic domain models, and badly organized teams.

About the speaker:
Henning loves programming in high quality. He lives this passion as coder, coach, and consultant at WPS – Workplace Solutions. There he helps teams to structure their monoliths or to build new systems from the beginning with a sustainable architecture. Microservices or self-contained systems are often the result. Henning is author of “Domain Storytelling” (Addison-Wesley 2022), “Domain-Driven Transformation” (Addison-Wesley 2024) and the www.LeasingNinja.io.
