Bounded Context

A Bounded Context can be considered as a miniature application, containing it’s own Domain, own code and persistence mechanisms. Each BC has also its own MODEL and it could be based on a specific data-source (database, etc.).

Each BC may have its own Ubiquitous language, or dialect of the Ubiquitous language used for the system.

A description of a boundary (typically a subsystem, or the work of a particular team) within which a particular model is defined and applicable. - Eric Evans


The delimited applicability of a particular model. BOUNDING CONTEXTS gives team members a clear and shared understanding of what has to be consistent and what can develop independently. Pasted from http://domaindrivendesign.org/resources/ddd_terms


For a disambiguation between Bounded context and Sub-system see the following note: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/domaindrivendesign/message/1408
