Architecting a Claim Processing System

Abstract

There are two central concepts in this book that are key to the successful design and implementation of a model-driven, well-architected web application using Laravel as the backbone framework. The structure of the book may seem a little weird at times, but I’m trying to balance all the prerequisite knowledge you need with the actual implementation you will be creating using that knowledge, all while juggling these two important topics. Frankly, there is a lot to learn, depending on the level of expertise you had when you started reading this book. I go into depth on the various concepts involved in DDD and the potential corresponding code relevant to Laravel in a manner that I think will be most beneficial to you when implementing these ideas and concepts in your real-life applications. I’ll give you a solid understanding of these concepts by providing you with situations that they will make good use cases so that you can attempt an implementation yourself using the Laravel framework as a means of realizing a domain-driven design, whether it be in your own projects or your company’s. The following are situations that make good use cases for selecting various patterns involved in DDD, so that we can fully explore the value they bring to our development efforts:
