The "One-Way" Mapping Strategy
Explore how the one-way mapping strategy in hexagonal architecture enables clear separation between layers by using shared interfaces and one-directional transformations. Understand how this approach supports domain-driven design principles and helps maintain strict control over domain state, allowing you to implement clean, maintainable software boundaries.

There is yet another mapping strategy with another set of pros and cons: the “One-Way” strategy, which is shown in the figure below.
One-way mapping
In this strategy, the models in all layers implement the same interface that encapsulates the state of the domain model by providing getter methods on the relevant attributes.
Domain
The domain model itself can implement a rich behavior, which we ...
