Events are baked into a domain, and communication between them occurs naturally. They are sent and consumed by different subdomains, and these interactions will be translated into software in the future. One must understand events in order to understand how a domain operates. Events must be understood in order to understand how a domain operates. Therefore, there are some techniques that people can count on so that they are able to discover requirements, interactions, and restrictions that occur in a domain. Moreover, the scope of every requirement, interaction, and restriction will be capped in a clear way for business and technical people.
