Event SourcingPlain and simpleFull-fledged approach

What we’re really covering

Foundation of CQRS

The big issue leading to CQ(R)SA single model caring about all aspects of the domain is hard.

Command/Query Separation (cit. Bertrand Meyer – 1980s)

Query> Returns data> Doesn’t alter state

Command> Alter state > Doesn’t return data

CQRS Impact on Complexity

We faced a lot of complexity in modeling We thought it was inherent domain

complexity

That more likely resulted from the Cartesian product of queries and commands

O(C x Q) vs. O(C + Q)

Flavors of CQRS Regular

• Transaction Script in the Command stack• Query stack (LET or SQL)

Premium• Domain Model in the Command stack• Ad-hoc read model

Deluxe• Domain Model and events (sourcing) in the Command

stack• Ad-hoc read model (with snapshots) …

CQRS: Regular

Transaction Script• Task-based, end-to-end use-case implementation • One core “transactional” method per user action• Not strictly model based, “it-just-works” approach• Money-back guarantee!

Two-layer query stack• Just queries: LINQ-to-Entities, ADO.NET• No models; just DTOs

Why making your life harder than it actually is?

Demo

MERP (regular)

Let’s Have LET Defined

Layered Expression Trees It’s an idiom Make queries speak the ubiquitous language Composition of IQueryable extension methods

• IQueryable up to the application layer DSL-like expressivity

LET in actionAs a business unit

manager, I want to

collect credits for all

outgoing invoices still

unpaid Database

How to use ubiquitous language while querying

.IssuedInvoices

.PerBusinessUnit(businessUnitId).Unpaid()

.Select(i => new {

});

InvoiceNumber = i.Number, CustomerId = i.Customer.Id

Demo

LET (operators)

CQRS: Premium

Domain Model in the Command stack• Domain Model focused on behavior that alters state

Ad-hoc storage for queries in the Query stack• Table-per-view strategy• Query through LET

C

Q

CQRS: Deluxe

Domain Model in the Command stack• Domain Model focused on behavior that alters

system ‘s state• Events in the building of tasks• Optionally, events as the primary data source

Ad-hoc storage for queries in the Query stack• Table-per-view strategy• Query through LET• Data snapshots and replay of events

CQRS Deluxe in action

1.Command takes effect 2.System’s state changes3.Changes notified through events to

registered subscribers (aka, handlers)• Workflow managers (aka, sagas)• Denormalizers (used to generate ad-hoc

views)

Application sends a command to the system

Typically: events are notified and commands executed via a mediator (aka, bus)
