What is a bounded context? Bounded Contexts are a core concept in Domain-Driven Design (DDD), serving as explicit boundaries within a larger domain model. They define a specific area where a particular model (and its associated ubiquitous language) is consistent and applicable. Outside this boundary, terms and concepts might have different meanings, or even be irrelevant. Think of a large enterprise. The term “Customer” might mean one thing to the Sales department (a lead, a prospect), another to the Support department (someone with an open ticket), and yet another to the Billing department (an entity with an outstanding invoice).

What is Event Storming? Event storming is a collaborative modeling technique used in domain-driven design (DDD) to explore and understand complex business domains. It involves bringing together a diverse group of stakeholders, including developers, domain experts, and business analysts, to collaborate on the creation of a visual representation of a business process or system. In event storming, the participants work together to identify events that occur within the system or process, and then organize these events into a timeline that represents the flow of actions and outcomes.
