I'm new to EF, I want to develop a web application to sell. I've been reading about DDD (Domain-driven design ), but I find that its implementation is complicated. Any suggestions or some project to understand this architecture.?

I plan on using as ORM: OpenAccess or NHibernate

  • Before starting off on DDD I'd suggest reading Vaughn Vernon's book: http://www.amazon.com/Implementing-Domain-Driven-Design-Vaughn-Vernon/dp/0321834577/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1367772967&sr=8-1&keywords=vaughn+vernon. You may also want to read Eric Evans': http://www.amazon.com/Domain-Driven-Design-Tackling-Complexity-Software/dp/0321125215/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1367773025&sr=8-1&keywords=eric+evans. Vaughn has some added techniques that Eric's original work does not contain. BTW, EF is an ORM but you mention that you plan on using OpenAccess or NHibernate :) – Eben Roux May 05 '13 at 16:58
  • +1 also can't recommend the Vernon book enough, I'm halfway through it myself and it's a great companion to the Evans book. If you're still investigating persistence methods, I'd strongly advise looking into NoSQL solutions as these allow for your entities to be created in a business-centric way. I've often found with ORMs that my DB design either leaks into the entities, or I have to cut off the ORM in the persistence layer (loosing most of the ORM goodness), just to keep things architecturally clean. – Adrian Thompson Phillips May 08 '13 at 09:32

You could use the OpenAccess ORM quick start scenarios section and the product Samples Kit, which contains end-to-end integration samples with different technologies. Should you have more specific questions, you could contact the product's support team, which can guide you through the process.

You can watch these trainings. It is step by step explanation how to create web application based on entity framework from data layer to presentation. Also you can watch plurasight trainings.

  • DDD NEVER starts with the database layer. that's the Data centric approach, as EF is a persistence detail. – MikeSW May 06 '13 at 07:39
