Hi,

If we have a service group called: CustomerServiceGroup or CustomerServices (i can see that some name it as group and some name it as plural)

what is better?

1. To have 1 service called customerService, that has 1 class with 3 methods createCustomer, readCustomer, updateCustomer
OR
2. To have 3 services, one called CeateCustomerService, the other is ReadCustomerService and last one is UpdateCustomerService
where the first service class has 1 method called createCustomer, the 2nd service class has 1 method called readCustomer and the last service class has a method called updateCustomer

Services and service group

Hi,

I think it will be more of a kind of preference. I do agree with you that in case you need some additional private methods, it will be better for readability to have a class per service.

On the flip side, have a look at the TSTimesheetService. This is one service with a lot of methods as a lot is related. So, a personal preference and use case will influence what will be "better".

Services and service group

Hi,

For Dynamics 365, it doesn't matter. Next to the class, you would need to create 3 services or 1. If you have 3 distinct services, you can create a service group.

Is there any preference from the other application that would need to use these services?
