So there was an interesting question that was raised over the weekend from Tim, on could we take our generic Unit of Work and Repositories and implement the Bounded DbContext Pattern or philosophy if you will from DDD (Domain Driven Design) concepts. There are a few reasons to go with this Pattern e.g organization, manageability, decoupling, performance (in some cases), maintainability, etc. My favorite reason is when working with large databases and having functionality in your application that is only working with specific domain areas, why load up a DbContext that has the overhead of your entire entity graph when your only working with a specific few? For example, you may have a database that has close to 100 tables (e.g. AdventureWorks), however if a user is only managing Products on a screen, why load up a DbContext that has the overhead of the entire entity graph. Figuring out where to decouple and decompose your domain model, to implement the Bounded DbContext Pattern can span a wide array of reasons, those reasons could span from business to technical reasons, usually both.
