Intent

CQRS Command Query Responsibility Segregation - Separate the query side from the command side.

Applicability

Use the CQRS pattern when

• you want to scale the queries and commands independently.
• you want to use different data models for queries and commands. Useful when dealing with complex domains.
• you want to use architectures like event sourcing or task based UI.
