Mapping business domains and boundaries involves discovering related business areas, defining ownership of data and rules, and classifying domains as core, supporting, or generic to inform build versus buy decisions. The output is a structured domain canvas document for stakeholder reviews.

Domain-driven design canvas modeling is used to visualize and organize business domains, their ownership, boundaries, and interactions. It produces a formal domain canvas that coordinates discovery, boundary definitions, classifications, and relationship mapping to guide system architecture and plugin planning.

Classifying core versus supporting domains requires mapping inter-domain interactions and defining ownership of capabilities. The domain canvas coordinates this discovery and classification process, enabling informed build versus buy decisions for plugin ecosystems and architecture roadmaps.

Generating a domain canvas requires providing a domain description or a workspace path. The tool then discovers domains, defines boundaries, maps relationships, and classifies domains as core, supporting, or generic to produce a structured canvas document.

A domain canvas is needed when teams must quickly visualize and organize business domains, ownership, and interactions to guide system architecture. It supports expert review and validation, producing a structured output document that informs stakeholder reviews and roadmaps.
