Great talk. Interesting, inspiring and very clear.

Great talk, Rafael, straight to the point and inspiring.

Finally someone who not only tells us that we're doing it wrong, but also managed to actaully convince me that we are in fact doing it wrong.

It's always nice to see how the big players are dealing with the same problems we face with our sites, only just a few magnitudes bigger ;) A great illustration of how decoupleling the place where the data goes in from the place where data goes out, allows you to build a scalable infrasturcture.

Also, for those who want to know the real context of that quote that was refered to (which was also used out of context in the slideshow she refered to), check out the original talk of Anthoni Ferrara: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjYyC47rdVs

Although I don't believe consul is the holy grail, this talk did provide me with some very interesting concepts.

I agree with most people here, mislead by the title. As technology is only an implementation detail according to many DDD talks, it's a bit strange to "sell" this very specific product (yes product, not methodology) under the DDD flag.

Great advice from someone who (like me) started programming in the pre-framework era.

Now here's a talk I would recommend to everyone. This was not a hey-look-how-great-doctrine-is talk, but an honest talk about when and when not to use an ORM. You gave a great explanation of what the new L2 cache of Doctrine, which looks really promising.

I've seen several talks of Andreas before, but unfortunately the quality of this talk was under par. The only word I can come up with to describe it, was messy. I'm not talking about the "intervention" of your son, which was actaully quite adorable (gives a human touch to the speaker ;), It just didn't feel like it was a coherant talk, and the way it was brought didn't help that either. You often jumped to the next slide before having finished explaining the previous, and seem to do the same when explaining things.

Good talk about HTTP/2 and how this differs from the current situation. Again, nothing better than real-life experience to back what you're telling.
