This presentation explores how the platform driving the guardian.co.uk, (3 time winner of the 'Best Newspaper' Webby), site was almost completely rebuilt using the principles of DDD. Key evolutions of our model, how DDD encouraged domain experts to greater iinvolvement, and how we maintained a deep, malleable domain model, whilst meeting deadlines are also discussed.
