by Juraj Sulimanović
Duration: 20 minutes + questions

This design pattern gained popularity as a response to oversized models. However, we have to be careful as Using Service Objects can lead to using procedural code masquerading as an object, rather than modeling your domain logic. We will explore how this design pattern can become an anti-pattern and see how the service layer should be used.
