Share Pie: The DDD Treasure Hidden in Plain Sight
summary
A large loan-tracking system gets simplified by modeling concrete cases — e.g., a borrower draws $50M from a $100M facility split among three lenders — and a whiteboard session plus concrete scenarios leads to a new domain concept, share pie. The team negotiates a one-off rip-it-up refactor under deadline with managerial trust, implements the new model, and finds features become much easier to add while the new term spreads into marketing and product discussions.
