As this came up in my timeline again today, here's what I think is the gist of the problem I see with consumer-driven-contracts (#CDC). Thread… 1/ With #CDC you fundamentally establish a customer / supplier relationship in DDD strategic design terms with the API provider ending up as customer (downstream) and the client as supplier (upstream). That means you end up with *multiple* upstreams for a *single* downstream.
