We’re exploring the intersection of Strategic DDD and AI.
The goal is to accelerate our understanding of the problem space without skipping the important conversations. We’ll cover mapping landscapes, defining boundaries, and evaluating codebases with agentic tools.

Companies merge. These companies have software systems in place that have more or less the same functionality and shall be merged, too. In this talk with Henning Schwentner we look at how the different tools from the DDD toolbox can help us doing the transition.

If your team is new to Domain-Driven Design (DDD), our upcoming training on April 20, 2026 is the perfect place to begin. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn to:
- Build rich, maintainable domain models
- Explore advanced DDD tactical patterns
- Practice with exercises

Opinion: Most 'integration strategies' are just expensive ways to often create new silos when business needs are unclear.
Strategic integration design flips this. Start with business processes, map the actual flows, then choose patterns that fit YOUR context.
⏰ Time to order: buff.ly/fHe3lf4
☝️ The schedule is live.
💡 Save the talks you actually want to see and arrive with a plan.

We research speakers by watching their talks, reading their work, and having conversations beyond just reviewing abstracts. This thorough approach helps us actively seek out speakers from underrepresented groups rather than relying only on our call for papers.

In this talk with Cyrille Martraire, we will present multiple examples demonstrating how taking liberties with domain traditions can be advantageous within bounded contexts and sometimes even in identifying the bounded contexts themselves.

This workshop with Michael Feathers dives into the forces, often invisible, yet always present, that influence the structure, behaviour, and longevity of software systems. You’ll learn to recognise the principles that drive software evolution and work with these dynamics: buff.ly/eka3bNp
💡 The venue for our Conference is located right next to the famous Antwerp Central Station, on the same square. That makes the train the best way to get to the venue: buff.ly/J31Lr2u
