Bounded Contexts

This version of ACME Learning Center Platform is divided into two bounded contexts: Profiles, and Learning.

Profiles Context

The Profiles Context is responsible for managing the profiles of the users. It includes the following features:

• Create a new profile.
• Get a profile by id.
• Get all profiles.

This context includes also an anti-corruption layer to communicate with the Learning Context. The anti-corruption layer is responsible for managing the communication between the Profiles Context and the Learning Context. It offers the following capabilities to other bounded contexts:

• Create a new Profile, returning ID of the created Profile on success.
• Get a Profile by Email, returning the associated Profile ID on success.

Learning Context

The Learning Context is responsible for managing the courses, course learning paths and course enrollments. Its features include:

• Create a Course.
• Get a Course by id.
• Update a Course information.
• Delete a Course.
• Get all Courses.
• Add an existing Tutorial to Course Learning Path.
• Register a new Student with implicit profile creation.
• Submit a Student Enrollment Request in a Course.
• Cancel a Student Enrollment Request in a Course.
• Confirm a Student Enrollment Request in a Course.
• Reject a Student Enrollment Request in a Course.
• Get all Enrollments for a Course.

This context includes also an anti-corruption layer to communicate with the Profiles Context. The anti-corruption layer is responsible for managing the communication between the Learning Context and the Profiles Context. It consumes the capabilities offered by the Profiles Context to:

• Create the Profile of a new Student.
• Get the Profile ID of a Student by Email.

Tutorial is a concept that represents a learning resource. It is used to build the learning path of a course. The Tutorial aggregate and its publishing lifecycle are part of the Publishing bounded context, which is beyond the scope of this platform version.
