- einrealist 8y agoIt could have been better. I call the aera of SOAP and CORBA as one of the reasons why Hypermedia formats have been avoided for so long. But that is changing, slowly. The drivers for that are maturing experiences with HTTP-driven APIs. DDD is becoming more important again, especially for organizations, that evolve around service oriented software (and hardware) architectures. One example, that you find on HNs frontpage right now, is Solid ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18100895 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18100895 ). Another example is Google's use of JSON-LD for meta data descriptions in HTML pages. And there is Mastodon, making use of vocabularies like ActivityPub. The best example though, is HTML and your Browser of choice.
