About the book

All About Hexagonal Architecture

  • Learn the concepts behind "Clean Architecture" and "Hexagonal Architecture".
  • Explore a hands-on approach of implementing a Hexagonal architecture with example code on GitHub.
  • Develop your domain code independent of database or web concerns.

Hexagonal Architecture

Get a Grip on Your Layers

  • Learn about potential problems of the common layered architecture style.
  • Free your domain layer of oppressive dependencies using dependency inversion.
  • Structure your code in an architecturally expressive way.
  • Use different methods to enforce architectural boundaries.
  • Learn the consequences of shortcuts and when to accept them.
  • ... and more.

What Readers Say

Tom Hombergs has done a terrific job in explaining clean architecture - from concepts to code. Really wish more technical books would be as clear as that one!

Gernot Starke - Fellow at INNOQ, Founder of arc42, Author of Software Architecture Books, Coach, and Consultant

Love your book. One of the most practical books on hexagonal architecture I have seen/read so far.

Marten Deinum - Spring Framework Contributor and Author of "Spring 5 Recipes" and "Spring Boot 2 Recipes"

A book taken right out of the machine room of software development. Tom talks straight from his experience and guides you through the day-to-day trade-offs necessary to deliver clean architecture.

Sebastian Kempken - Software Architect at Adcubum

Thank you for the great book, it helped me gain significant insight into how one would go about implementing hexagonal and DDD in a modern Spring project.

Spyros Vallianos - Java Developer at Konnekt-able

After reading it I had one of these 'aha' moments when things finally click in your brain.
