A distributed system is a network of autonomous computers that communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages over a network. Distributed systems can range in size from a small number of computers in a single office to thousands of computers scattered across the world.

DDD can aid in the development of distributed systems by providing a way to model and organize the domain logic in a way that is independent of the distributed architecture. The domain model can be designed to encapsulate the business logic and entities, and can be used to guide the design of the distributed system.

By focusing on the domain model, DDD can help to identify the bounded contexts, aggregates, and interactions between different parts of the system. This can aid in the development of a distributed system that is resilient, scalable, and maintainable.

DDD can also help to guide the development of distributed systems by providing a common language and understanding of the domain between different parts of the system. This can help to ensure that different teams are working towards the same goals and can help to reduce communication and coordination overhead.
