In this lecture,  we start a two series session about Domain Driven Design (DDD) for designing microservices. In this first part, we will look at the strategic phase, covering the whole idea of the approach, the definition of bounded contexts, and the creation of context maps. Next lecture, we will continue with the tactical level.
