EventStorming is a highly collaborative method for modelling domains and solve real business problems. Software Engineers, Product Owners, Analysts, and Domain Experts, work together to
- explore a complex business;
- visualize it using large surfaces and sticky notes
- and use it to build better software, with an architecture that matches the problem space.
Contents
In this workshop we’ll walk through a business problem to learn the basics of EventStorming.
We’ll start with a Big Picture EventStorming, using domain events to map out the business processes. While working, we’ll gradually add more and more information and go into deeper problems.
Adding commands and rules to the model will guide the learning process and help surface problems with the solution. By this point we’ll be able to explore the full potential of this temporal modelling technique to help us discover deeper insights about the domain, build our shared knowledge and guide us to better solutions for business problems.
In the last part of the workshop the focus will even go into more detail about the model. What can we learn from what we have modelled and how can we actually start using our newly gathered knowledge. How can we link this information to other techniques we know. For example, can we gather user stories, find acceptance tests or discover even more by using different ways of modelling?
At the end you’ll walk away with the knowledge to use this collaborative modelling technique to solve problems, build shared understanding and learn the domain wherever you need it.

Testimonials
I really liked that the workshop was mainly hands on, enabling us to learn by doing. I feel this is much more beneficial compared to just lectures. In the long term this method will help my team improve the software we deliver to the business
The instructor was experienced and knowledgeable and I’m expecting to see an immediate impact as we are going to use this method straight away.
Great interaction and in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge of the facilitator that demonstrated an eagerness towards the subject. In the long term I expect EventStorming will become a routine practice we use for all our projects
