Get a detailed, in-depth look at the Microsoft Windows®
Distributed Internet Architecture (DNA) with this dynamic
new book. Focusing on Internet and
intranet technologies
utilizing the Component Object Model (COM) and Microsoft
Transaction Server (MTS) as a
development platform, it
helps you understand how all parts of
DNA fit together and
how they can be used to build successful, robust
distributed
applications. Here's your guide to building DNA
applications of less complexity and greater scalability,
resulting in increased productivity, better performance,
and reduced problem-solving time.
The technologies examined in Global Distributed
Applications With Windows® DNA are here to stay, and
this book presents DNA from a web development perspective,
ideal for development teams looking for global solutions.
This book helps you understand the value of interoperable
and reusable components, the difference between standard
client/server distributed applications and Windows DNA
applications, the issue of multiple relationships and
interactions among DNA components and why it is important
to manage these interactions, and the design changes
required to construct successful DNA applications.
An important element of Global Distributed
Applications With Windows® DNA is its examination of
how software development and software project management
must change to accommodate requirements of DNA
architecture. This book bridges the gap between technical
development and project management, giving designers a new
development model and project managers the understanding
needed to effectively direct the work.
