Using neurUL, developers will be able to solve the ""unavoidable redundancies"" problem, wherein, despite the introduction of database normalization more than half a century ago, relational databases with their current limitations, are still plagued by costly, ever-growing redundancies across columns, rows, tables, as well as in schema definitions **Suyogya Taneja** CQRS in Modern .NET: Clean Architecture, Vertical Slice, Microservices, and AI-Assisted Development with Claude Code The talk will explore implementing CQRS in modern .NET applications across Clean Architecture, Vertical Slice Architecture, and Microservices, along with demonstrating how AI-assisted development using Claude Code can help accelerate building CQRS-based features such as commands, handlers, and tests. **Anderson Santos** Automate Work and Build Tools with No-Code Repetitive tasks are everywhere, copying data between systems, updating records, processing documents, and managing manual workflows. In this talk, Anderson will show how no-code automation platforms like Make allow anyone to connect systems, eliminate boring work, and build powerful workflows without writing code. He will also briefly explore how the same approach can be used to create internal tools and even launch small SaaS products. **Ben Taylor** Building MCP Servers is Surprisingly Easy The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is changing what is possible with LLMs and enabling general purpose agents. It turns out building MCP servers is super easy. Ben will talk about what an MCP is, some background around the security considerations involved, how to build one, and what you could use it for. **SCHEDULE** **5.45pm** Open doors, food served **6.10pm** Intro and three talks **7.30pm** Break for networking and drinks **8.00pm** Two more talks **8.45pm** Close **CODE OF CONDUCT** All DDD events are subject to the DDD Code of Conduct available at https://www.dddmelbourne.com/code-of-conduct/ **VENUE AND FOOD SPONSOR** [Luminary](https://www.luminary.com/) **FUTURE EVENTS** Are you interested in speaking at a future DDD by Night?
