 +  - Start by **analyzing the business domain** to understand the application's functional requirements. The output of this step is an informal description of the domain, which can be refined into a more formal set of domain models.
 +  - Next, **define the bounded contexts of the domain**. Each bounded context contains a domain model that represents a particular subdomain of the larger application.
 +  - Within a bounded context, apply tactical DDD patterns to **define entities, value objects, aggregates, and domain services**.
 +  - Use the results from the previous step to **identify the microservices** in your application.

-The purpose of an aggregate is to model transactional invariants.

If the application modifies several related objects, how does it guarantee consistency? How do we keep track of invariants and enforce them?+The purpose of an aggregate is to model **transactional invariants**.

 |Services|In DDD terminology, a service is an object that implements some logic without holding any state.  \\ \\ Evans distinguishes between **domain services**, which **encapsulate domain logic**, and **application services**, which provide **technical functionality**, such as user authentication or sending an SMS message. Domain services are often used to model behavior that spans multiple entities.| |Services|In DDD terminology, a service is an object that implements some logic without holding any state.  \\ \\ Evans distinguishes between **domain services**, which **encapsulate domain logic**, and **application services**, which provide **technical functionality**, such as user authentication or sending an SMS message.
