Background
One of the recurring themes of my career is how to structure sophisticated information
systems, particularly those that operate across multiple processing tiers. It's a subject I
discussed briefly in a chapter in Analysis Patterns, and one that I looked at in more depth
in many consulting engagements. In the last few years I've been doing a lot of work with
Enterprise Java: but there's no surprise that many of the ideas and patterns involved are
exactly the same as those that I've run into earlier with CORBA, DCE, and Smalltalk
based systems.
This notion mon lessons has been amplified by my collaborations with developers
at ThoughtWorks. A lot of old time developers at ThoughtWorks did a lot of work with
Forte - which was a sophisticated distributed environment. Others have background in
CORBA and we mon lessons and patterns that are relevant
whatever the technological platform.
So I decided to take advantage of this knowledge to capture and write down some of
these ideas. Most of the writing here is mine, but the e from many
ThoughtWorkers, although Dave Rice and Matt Foemmel have contributed a particularly
large amount of information. For the moment what we have is these web pages. In time
there's probably a book, we'll see how it goes.
I've decided to put my work in progress on these web pages. As I do this, there's some big
health warnings. I'm still working through how best to structure and explain these ideas.
So if you prefer your sausages only when they're done, you may not want to delve in too
deep here. But for those with a taste for pre-alpha writings, you can find them here.
