  • A Fusion of Proven Ideas: A Look Behind S#arp Architecture

    In this article Billy McCafferty presents S#arp Architecture, an ASP.NET MVC architectural framework meant to leverage current best practices in architecting ASP.NET web applications by providing a project code template which uses Domain-Driven Design techniques and has built-in support for NHibernate, Castle Windsor and SQLite.

  • Interview and Book Excerpt: Thomas Erl's SOA Design Patterns

    Today, InfoQ publishes an excerpt from Thomas Erl’s newest book, SOA Design Patterns, and used the opportunity to interview the author. Topics covered include the role of a patterns catalog, differences between service-orientation, SOA, and Web services, and the current state of the SOA world.

  • Describing RESTful Applications

    If servers control their own namespace without a fixed resource hierarchy, how do clients, and more importantly client developers, get to learn or discover URIs of resources? In a new article, Subbu Allamaraju discusses how to describe a RESTful API, focusing on using hypermedia instead of an out-of-band description format such as WADL or WSDL 2.0.

  • Nate Kohari on Releasing Ninject 1.0

    Ninject is touted as a lightning-fast, ultra-lightweight dependency injector for .NET applications. Helping developers split applications into a collection of loosely-coupled, highly-cohesive pieces, and then glue them back together in a flexible manner. Using Ninject to support your software's architecture, your code will become easier to write, reuse, test, and modify.

  • Domain Driven Design and Development In Practice

  • Drinking your Guice too quickly?

    Dependency Injection has been around for a while, and many teams are refactoring their applications to use DI. But it can be a struggle. In this article, Paul Hammant explains the route to take to move an existing application from a nest-of-singletons design to a full fledged DI design.

  • Bridging the gap between BI & SOA

    Business intelligence (BI) and service-oriented architecture (SOA) have conflicting principles and needs. SOA promotes hiding the data inside the services while BI needs that very data if we want to get meaningful predictions and alerts. This article will show you how you can combine SOA with EDA to solve the BI/SOA conflict and maybe even enhance your SOA.

  • Incorporating Enterprise Data into SOA

    The majority of today's SOA design techniques are centered around definition of services. They use service-oriented decomposition, based on the business processes, enterprise business/functional model, required long term architectural goals and reuse of the existing enterprise functionality. This article takes a more data centric approach...

  • Spring.NET - QnA

    InfoQ had a chance to sit down with Aleksandar Seovic and Mark Pollack the co-creaters of Spring.NET. Spring.NET is an application framework that brings AOP, a Dependency Injection container and data access framework to .NET. It is not a complete port of Spring to .NET yet it preserves the tenets of Spring.

  • SOA anti-patterns
