Answer
They define what data is included in API responses.
Serialization boundaries determine which properties of an object are serialized and sent over the network. By controlling these boundaries in DTOs, you can ensure that only the necessary data is exposed. For instance, in an e-commerce application, a ProductDTO might exclude the supplier's cost details which are irrelevant to the client.
