Interface AggregateRoot

All Superinterfaces:

Identifiable, Searchable

public interface AggregateRoot
extends Identifiable

Aggregate root is a meaningful object in the domain. It can be viewed as a write boundary for entities and value objects that will maintain write consistency.

Usually it represents a single table, but can span several tables and can be used like document or similar data structure. Since every aggregate is also an entity, it has a unique identification represented by its URI.

DSL example:

 module Todo {
   aggregate Task {
     timestamp startedAt;
     timestamp? finishedAt;
     int? priority;
     List<Note> notes;
   }
   value Note {
     date entered;
     string remark;
   }
 }
