Mini-book: Finding software boundaries for fast flow - Team Topologies and Domain-Driven Design

The book Team Topologies by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais — published in September 2019 — introduced a new way of thinking about organization dynamics and software architecture design, via the principles of well-defined team types and team interactions, by taking a team-first approach, and considering cognitive load as a constraining factor on team size and team interactions. TT provides a fresh combination of principles and practices that help evolve organizations towards effective collaboration, autonomy, delivery focus and product alignment ultimately enabling a faster flow of change.

Several people in the wider DDD community, especially those engaged in the concept of socio-technical architectures, have identified some similar concepts and intentions between DDD and TT but with subtle differences in approach that encourage them to be complementary. This mini-book explores the similarities, differences and crossovers between DDD and TT in a series of insightful articles that will help you to apply the ideas from both areas effectively.
