Kill Aggregate - Volume 2

When we first met the "Aggregate," it was a revered pattern in Domain-Driven Design, promising to tame the complexity of distributed systems. But as time went on, we all faced its dark side: overly rigid boundaries, convoluted transactional workflows, and sleepless nights spent debugging consistency issues. It’s time to unsheath the katana of innovation and challenge the status quo. Welcome to Kill Aggregate, Volume 2.

In this talk, we'll dive into the world of Dynamic Consistency Boundaries—a technique that flips the script on traditional aggregate-based modeling. By embracing adaptive boundaries that evolve based on needs, we can tackle some of the trickiest scenarios where aggregates often fall short. We'll showcase real-world examples where this approach simplifies complexity, improves scalability, and slashes unnecessary overhead.

Whether you're an architect tired of aggregate-induced headaches or a developer looking for fresh ideas, this talk will equip you with the tools to rethink how you approach distributed systems. It’s time to say goodbye to rigid aggregates and hello to a more flexible, pragmatic design philosophy.
