It's been so long since the Semantic web and RDF and OWL and SKOS. I'm so glad they stuck with W3C and didn't reinvent those wheels. Will this UDA approach catch on? I don't know, but I hope so. It seems like it is trying to move the frontier of the difficulties of applying Domain Driven Design and semantic concepts to an enterprise company of significant scale.

If we can get compound interest across development teams by giving them a common toolset and skillset that covers different applications but the same data semantics, maybe not every data contract will have to be reduced to DTOs that can be POSTed or otherwise forced to be a least common denominator just so it can fit past a network or other IPC barrier.

For that, I'm grateful Netflix is working on this and publicizing the interesting work.
