Importance of Domain Knowledge
Suppose we have designed software using all the latest tech stack and infrastructure and our software design architecture is amazing, but when we release this software in the market, it is ultimately the end user who decides whether our system is great or not. Also if the system does not solve business needs, then it is of no use to anyone. No matter how pretty it looks or how well the architecture its infrastructure are.
According to Eric Evans, When we are developing software our focus should not be primarily on technology, rather it should be primarily on business. Remember,
It is not the customer’s job to know what they want” – Steve Jobs
Domain-Driven Design (DDD)
Domain-Driven Design (DDD) is an approach to software development that focuses on understanding and modeling the problem domain within which a software system operates. It emphasizes the importance of collaborating closely with domain experts to develop a deep understanding of the domain’s intricacies and complexities. DDD provides a set of principles, patterns, and practices to help developers effectively capture and express domain concepts in their software designs.
