Product Description

Review

"Enterprise CORBA is not so much about doing things in CORBA as it is about doing things in CORBA that are not easy to do, but that have to be done to make a project deployable. This is refreshing. CORBA technology is deep enough that most books concentrate on what CORBA does and does well. The authors of Enterprise CORBA " — Jack Woehr, Dr. Dobbs Electronic Review of Computer Books



Product Description

Enterprise CORBA is a complete blueprint for building large scale CORBA applications with the reliability, scalability, and manageability today's enterprises require -- using technologies in the marketplace today. In this book, three leading developers of large-scale CORBA applications distill their hard-won expertise. Review CORBA fundamentals, architecture, services, and development approaches that are key to enterprise development. Understand crucial database integration and transaction processing issues, including object persistence, and handling long-lived transactions involving human users. Maximize scalability through improved server resource management, load balancing, fault tolerance, component testing, and other means. Finally, discover how CORBA and distributed objects are changing object-oriented software engineering; the strengths and limits of today's tools; and how to use new UML extensions to model your CORBA applications more precisely.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelent! The advanced Orbix book I was looking for!, 19 Nov 1999
By A Customer
It's a real joy to read this book. I found both a confirmation to some of my expreirnce from previous real life projects and some new exciting ideas! The book is very honest pointing out both the weak and strong areas of CORBA.

It should be read by any one interested in advanced & architecture issues or CORBA, but is a real hit for the Orbix community.

5.0 out of 5 stars The first book on application server internals!, 1 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This book could have been subtitled "The Science of Application Servers." Well-written and extremely comprehensive!

4.0 out of 5 stars Up-to-date and highly relevant, 22 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I found this book to be quite up-to-date. It spends a considerable amount of time examining the POA and discusses many of the pieces of the CORBA3 specification individually. However the most valuable aspect was its coverage of distributed system design issues which are widely applicable across different technologies.
