Vaughn Vernon is an entrepreneur, software developer, and architect with more than 35 years of experience in a broad range of business domains. Vaughn is a leading expert in Domain-Driven Design and reactive, a champion of simplicity, and he is the founder and chief architect of the VLINGO/PLATFORM. He consults and teaches around Domain-Driven Design and reactive software development, helping teams and organizations realize the potential of business-driven and reactive systems as they transition from technology-driven legacy web implementation approaches. In addition to this new title, Vaughn is the author of three books: Implementing Domain-Driven Design, Reactive Messaging Patterns with the Actor Model, and Domain-Driven Design Distilled, all published by Addison-Wesley.

The VLINGO/PLATFORM is a set of open source (OSS) distributed computing tools that simplify concurrent, reactive, event-driven, and microservices architectures, and is also welcoming to modular monoliths. From resilient and scalable clustered services—those that are both highly concurrent and message driven—to service registration and discovery, to full distributed systems control, to data and event streaming, the future of service-based distributed solutions and modular monoliths is delivered by the VLINGO/PLATFORM.
