Product Description Expert ASP.NET 2.0 Advanced Application Design will help you derive maximum performance and reliability from the distributed applications you create with ASP.NET 2.0. The book first looks at some of the non-functional requirements that impact the design of a distributed application. It then relates them to the servers and services available in the .NET 2.0 Framework. ASP.NET 2.0 is the central process for use in distributed .NET applications, and the book closely examines the ASP.NET 2.0 Framework and its hosting environment, Internet Information Server (IIS). The book looks at how ASP.NET 2.0 is used by different packages within .NET (like Web Services), and explores how it can be extended to meet your own custom requirements. The second part of the book drills down and examines some of the common architectural challenges encountered when developing application designs. The book walks through the tiers of the .NET Framework, starting at the client level and exploring the internals of the page type, enhancements to ViewState, client script generation, and new out-of-band callbacks. At the middle tier, the book examines Web Services, Remoting, COM+, MSMQ, and mix and match communication options to suit your own requirements. This section wraps up by previewing Windows Communication Foundation, which aims to unify these technologies. The third part of the book examines the data layer of your distributed applications. This includes enhancements to the Managed Providers in 2.0, the new transactional model, and a preview of usage guidelines for SQL Server 2005. By the books conclusion, you will be able to select with confidence the most appropriate design elements for your purposes, elegantly connecting them, and ensuring you get the very best from the ASP.NET 2.0 Framework.
Featured Customer Reviews Nice to have,
January 16, 2007 This book is a good introduction to ASP.NET 2.0, it will not suffice to anyone requiring details.
It gives an introduction to architecture, and some introduction to the WCF (Windows COmmunication Foundation), but not nearly enough.
I would wait until more literature comes out on .NET 3.0 before purchasing a book of this type.
The word "Expert" in the cover is a bit misleading...
Best regards, ASP.NET Architect book only,
November 08, 2006 This book is about how to configure your ASP.NET code in configuration page to utilize the system resource such as create connection string, disconnect, and clean up the connection resource after using it. It shows the inpact on your server when you did not use the resource properly--server spike up. The title of this book is misleading if you are looking for coding examples. It covered materials like when to use .Net Remote, COM+, Connection Pooling, and Web Services. This book should be titled as "Adanced Application Patterns and Resource Management". This book has no advanced application samples for those application developers and it is more for Senior Programmers/team leads who are responsible for server and system architects. This book is "good to have" but "not must have" book. I gave it a 3 stars because of its title does not match its contents. I hope this rating help you to find a book better suit for what you needed. Not an application design book,
August 23, 2006 The main reason that I bought this book for, was what is on the book title: "ASP.NET Advanced Application Design". Unfortunately, this book merely scratches the surface of the application design. In fact a good title would be "ASP.NET 2.0 Best practices" or "ASP.NET 2.0 New features". Now, in case you are looking for such a book, this is a good book. It explains thoroughly every item and the examples are really good. So buy it if you need another opinion for specific ASP.NET topics but do not expect to see a detailed Application Design plan. Good Stuff,

I'm still working my way though it, but am already very impressed. This book has an unusual combination of "high level" concepts explained with solid code examples. And at 480 pages there's no room for fluff. Good stuff.
Superb!,
January 19, 2006 The book is not about how to program asp.net applications. It is about how to architect asp.net applications. There are many books dealing with the former topic, but there are very few that are worth reading about related to the latter. If you already know the ins-and-outs of programming with asp.net but want to learn how to create an architecturally-sound, scalable, and maintaiable solutions, this book is your best bet.
