I always find it amusing how good microservices design looks almost identical to individual small monoliths, and how the microservices of today are often larger than monoliths of 10 years ago in terms of code size and resources needed.

Most people doing microservices today have a distributed monolith. Large states moving from service to service with versioning as a huge problem, prone to cascading failures, vague boundaries, vague understanding of which service should handle a cascading failure. Moreover like you mentioned, you really cannot spin up an instance independently which was the whole point of building a standalone service. Lastly testing is a nightmare.

Thank you for this video! I think this is the first time I've seen someone explicitly show an example between the logical view and the physical view where the database logically is "split", but physically is the SAME database, with the logical split happening at the schema level. Lots of people miss this when developing microservices. Almost every SOA/microservice system I've seen in the last 15 years (except for one) all have the same development view, logical view and physical view. Separate visual studio solution per microservice and separate database. It does NOT have to be like this. A lot of people this same physical vs. logical view mistake when using CQRS. A separate write store and read store does not mean you have to use two separate databases. You can achieve logical separation using schema, relational db views, and other patterns like state changes only happen view commands, and reads only happen via a db's LINQ provider or a repository layer.

You're hitting the nail on the head with this one. Mixing up logical boundaries with physical boundaries is one of the most common and expensive mistakes I see happening. To make matters worse, lots of companies also base their entire team structure on this wrong split making it very hard to recover from this mistake

Another example of that is code itself. It may be tempting to split code for different microservices into physically different repos, but then you create hurdles for sharing code between them.

Hi Derek, I am a complete beginner/new commer to DDD and your channel is a gold mine =) So thank you for putting all that effort in sharing your knowledge. One technical concept that i can't wrap my head around regarding to separating domains is regarding entities that are cross domains by nature, like Users for example. A user is referenced in every single domaine, and every domain needs to access user informations (like username and whatnot). Let me give a concrete example: 1/ Let us say that we have an ordering, sales, purchases and inventory domains, each with its own transactions. We want to be able to display the username of the user that performed the transaction when displaying the lists of transactions. 2/ We also want to be able to have some audit data recorded per entity, ie the user that created and last updated the entity, and when displaying the list of the said entity, we also whant to display the username of the related user for the entire list. I know i asked a lot already but i will be forever grateful if you could give a small example user EF =) Thank you in advance.
@CodeOpinion
@CodeOpinion 2 года назад
As an example, I usually have a 'user' that tied to every command/query/event. Every request from the outside API (eg http API) gets generally translated to a message that also contains some identification of the user the initiated it. It's not the entire "user" just some identification of them and possibly roles/permissions etc. (Think identify/claims)
@FISS007
@FISS007 2 года назад
@@CodeOpinion So, each domain defines its 'user' within its database ? or are we "allowed" from a DDD perspective to let all domains cross boundary with the one and only domain that owns the user (a sort of controlled coupling) ?

Each wouldn't likely need it's own user. The identity passed around with messages would serve most purposes.

It's true logical and physical boundaries are not the same, but it's not as if separating different services onto different physical structures is a thoughtless choice. If you have two services sharing the same physical database, if that database goes down, both services go down. Any sharing of physical resources increases coupling between services.
@CodeOpinion

My guess is smaller teams creating bigger systems would be better served in making this distinction to reduce physical/deployment complexity where it's just not needed.

Correct. A physical boundary is a unit of deployment. A logical boundary is a cohesive grouping of features and data ownership.

on 07:50, I'm a bit confused. What do you mean by having a local data cache on other boundary could mean wrong logical boundary? What if the local cache is needed to display the data? Or here's a scenario. Let's say, I have a service that sending message to other user. Now, part of the process of sending the message, I would need to perform validation whether the user exists or not. My Question is, what should be done here? Should this message service perform RPC calls to identity service to validate the existence of the user, or should the message service holds the local cache of the list of available users mirroring the identity service?
@CodeOpinion
@CodeOpinion 2 года назад
It depends why you want or need the data as a local cache. If it's for display purposes (eg, product name), sure, but if it's for data that's required for business logic, that's when I'd start digging into why that data is owned in another boundary.

No, you wouldn't be allowing a logical boundary to access the data of another logical boundary. What I was intending to describe is that the schema/data can live on the same physical database instance.

Clearly, I didn't articulate that well. What I was attempting to say is if you needed data in another logical boundary for business logic purpose, it's likely that you have boundaries wrong, and that feature is in the wrong logical boundary. Even if it was in a different physical boundary, it could reach out to the db directly, if it's in the correct logical boundary.

I think I perfectly agree with the spirit of this video especially for traditional infrastructures. I still have some doubts about cloud scaling options. Maybe this is not really related to video, this can be considered off topic, but I try to ask. The point is that - from the perspective of concurrency in a 12 factors app as well as in an event driven architecture like keda on k8s - you end up scaling pods based on some queue mechanism. I consider that a physical boundary because it triggers the number of physical nodes in a cluster. But in modern languages (f#, golang, even c# and scala somehow) you have an async task model that is different from, say, old classical java spring boot jms (which in turn works well with some activemq or rabbitmq, hence with keda). That modern async model is really a logical boundary: indeed tasks or goroutines are not in 1:1 correspondence with low level os processes (how can they be correctly intercepted by kubernetes scaling metrics? I don't think they easily can). In conclusion I'm afraid that it's very difficult for an app that is not designed as the expected microservices cloud native app to scale well on the kubernetes cluster. The cause of logical boundaries becoming also physical boundaries could be the "dockerization pattern", this cloud native approach to the cloud infrastructure where we no longer have single virtual machines, but only containerized, ephemeral, immutable pod processes, for which the physical and logical boundaries intrinsically fade into one another
@CodeOpinion

@@CodeOpinion I'm afraid I'm also old... because I remember those years. But if I open a book I bought at that prehistoric time - rational unified process - it reads like the architectural model has more views (4+1) among which there is the *logical* view that is distinct from the *implementation* view and from the *deploy* view... Somehow similar to the concepts you've expressed here... Correct? I was trying to say that instead docker and kubernetes (to some extent) tightened/overlapped together those old different views in the "cloudy" concept of pod/container/deployment. Also the concept itself of devop can be imagined as a fusion of dev (=logical view?) and ops (=physical view? =the old deploy and implementation views of the years of rational unified process?).

The tutorial is useful. I have a scenario that i want to build a API to get the list of all orders of the current user. Each order will include the following info: -Product name, product category: collected from product service -Shipping info from shipping service -Payment info from payment service ... If i understand you correctly composing the related info should be handled at UI or some kind of API composer service? There's also an use case where we need to validate stock availability from inventory service to make sure there's any order is created and failed after that due to stock unavailability issue. Could you share idea how to solve that kind of problem?

Entire video is an attempt to rationalise tight coupling of the implementation of logical entities. Fail. Solution complexity should only be reduced to get it as close to problem space complexity as possible and no further. You’re basically adhering to the KISS principle here: Keep It Stupidly Simple. Additionally your introduction of rpc as the only alternative to event-based as a means of state change is the first appendage in the strawman you built to justify your desire for micro-tight-coupling to save you from the reality of the complexity required to solve the problem space of loose coupling and independently evolvable solutions. Calling into question the very fabric of event-based state management is an even more laughable part of your wickerman. Presented as simply an annoying complication to this implementation mechanism it would in fact render the who concept a non-starter. If I could pinpoint your root problem it would be that you present a set of issues that could simply be removed from the equation without requiring the tight physical coupling solution as a reason to do so. It is painful to watch you guys try to recreate the lessons we learned in the mid-2000’s due to tool vender and consultancy disinformation campaigns of the 20teens and go in the wrong directions (ie running back toward bad decisions we were moving away from before hand). This is why the IT industry is so cyclical: every time we make progress towards simplicity that actually solves problems across the breadth of the value-stream it cuts tool vendors and cookie-cutter consultants out of the reward chain and they respond with a campaign to embrace and redirect the effort into a corrupted form they can profit from and then sit back and watch reactionary developers run back towards the old ways thinking they are running to awards new ones with new understandings of “how they are ok if we do it this way or that” (new jargon to justify old bad ideas). Once you live long enough to see the cycles it becomes extremely disheartening to watch.
