Hello everyone,

I am in the process of writing a book (aimed at .NET architects) entitled '.NET scalability' (or something similiar, not sure on exact title) and would greatly appreciate opinions or ideas on two topics.

We have discussed including a brief description of nant, a port of the popular ant tool for java development, and nunit, the port of java's junit unit testing framework. Do you think a brief description of these tools would be of value or out of the target audience's range (intermediate developers, 3-5 yrs exp and architects). (For a little bit more information on the book, see the below description.) What other topics do you feel would be of value to such a title? There are multitudes of entry level programming books and we are assuming knowledge of OO, SQL design, ASP concepts (state mgmt, caching). We are trying to summarize points for a concise set of more advanced examples not found in your typical 'enterprise.net', 'n-tier development', '.net design', book.

I recognize this post may be off topic for the group and apologize to those who would rather not read such posts. Please don't flame, I am only trying to see what the pulse of .NET architects are looking for in documentation.

Thanks!
Damon Allison

We will discuss architecture related issues surrounding .NET when creating a multi-tier system. For data access, we are discussing transaction management (ServicedComponent and tx in sp's), a small bit on proper relational design, SP creation and maintenance, and creating a data access object layer to abstract the interaction with the SP's. For the object layer, we are discussing proper OO design, (finalization, IDispose, encapsulation, inheritance), interaction with the DB layer (more tx perhaps) and COM+ integration. For UI, we are discussing caching and state management (and web farm considerations). We tie the application up and illustrate tracing, code profiling, and perfmon in a section entitiled 'measuring performance'.

Suggestions :-
- IIS settings/config/integration/effects on scalability/performance
- design patterns (with case studies) with emphasis on
scalability/performance.
- Project Team integration (ie. sharing projects/code in a team)

Thats all for now...

I think this would be great to cover. I'd like to start using=
unit testing,
but haven't yet ventured into learning nunit and the process. I=

would go a long way to faster coding and more bulletproof code on=
some of

especially as
the ASP, WinForms, web services lines begin to blur...

And I think nant could be a boon for those who will end up using=
Web Matrix
to create business objects and want something more elegant than=
batch files
for compiling to DLLs. (It would make a great plug-in project.)
