The official conference hotel is the West Cord Fashion Hotel Amsterdam.
We are providing shuttle buses between the Westcord Fashion Hotel and the Meervaart venue.
The address is Meer en Vaart 300, 1068 LE Amsterdam.
There's a shuttle bus from the Westcord Fashion Hotel to and from the venue.
There are several tram and busstops in the vicinity. Tram 17 stops directly in front of the theater (stop Ruimzicht) and Tram 1 stops at a walking distance of about 4 minutes (stop Meer en Vaart). Buses 61, 63 and 69 also stop right in front of the theater (busstop Ruimzicht).
You can park your car at the Q-Park garage, located very near to the theater at Osdorpplein 249, 1068 ER Amsterdam. Coming from de Lelylaan (A10 junction 106) take a right turn at the T-intersection. Turn left at the second traffic light. You should see the Q-Park garage at your left-hand side. The parking has reserved disabled spaces and an elevator. From there it is just a two minute walk to the theater.
We work with a professional childcare service, with trained caretakers. This is a free service, but we charge a €20 registration fee to avoid false positives. We can refund it after the event upon request. Register at https://ti.to/dddbv/dddeu20.

Are you a senior developer or architect interested in building software systems for complex domains? Many of the sessions require an advanced level of thinking about software design. If you are completely new to DDD, maybe DDD Foundations is more suitable for you.
Domain-driven design (DDD) is an approach to developing software for complex needs by deeply connecting the implementation to an evolving model of the core business concepts. * Place the project's primary focus on the core domain and domain logic * Base complex designs on a model * Initiate a creative collaboration between technical and domain experts to iteratively cut ever closer to the conceptual heart of the problem. * The premise is simple, but pulling it off in the messy real world is hard. It calls for new skills and discipline, and a systematic approach. Domain-driven design is not a technology or a methodology. DDD provides a structure of practices and terminology for making design decisions that focus and accelerate software projects dealing with complicated domains. (Text borrowed from domainlanguage.com)
The conference does not focus on any particular programming language or technology. Some sessions might have code in them, but you should be able to follow even if you don’t know the language that is used.
All sessions are in English. We also encourage all participants to speak English, even with your friends, to make it easy for others to join.
Yes, most of them. But a conference is more than a bunch of talks. You’ll miss out on the workshops, meeting new and old friends, interesting discussions, and lots of fun.
DDD Foundations is aimed at *all* roles in software, of all levels: decision makers, analysts, testers, product owners, architects, and programmers. We'll help you understand what DDD is, why your organisation should care about DDD, and where to start.
If you're already into DDD, the main conference is for you. But if you want a refresher, or if you need better arguments to move your team to DDD, DDD Foundations is a great way to start.
They're all great! Drop us an email, we'll help you decide.
