Description This 5-day instructor-led workshop will teach developers how to apply advanced techniques for designing distributed applications for Microsoft ® Windows ® 2000. Advanced design techniques include the use of design patterns and architecture templates in the logical design, the choice of technology in the physical design, and best practices. Students will create the logical and physical designs of a sample application by using the design techniques presented in this course. Audience The primary audience for this course is senior corporate developers who build distributed applications for internal corporate use. They are familiar with using Microsoft Visual Basic ® to build COM+ components and with Windows 2000 and Extensible Markup Language (XML). The secondary audience is consultants who offer their services during any stage of the development process for distributed applications. They are familiar with using Visual Basic to build COM+ components and with Windows 2000 and XML. A third possible audience for this course is information technology (IT) professionals (traditionally called system architects) whose job includes helping to determine the technologies that should be used to solve their company’s IT needs. Student Prerequisites This course requires that students meet the following prerequisites: ! Create Visual Basic COM+ components that can participate in transactions. ! Use Visual Basic to implement interfaces on COM+ components. ! Create Visual Basic COM+ components that use the Loosely Coupled Events (LCE) model. ! Create Visual Basic COM+ queued components. ! Use the Component Services snap-in to configure COM+ components for security, activation, concurrency, transactions, and queuing. ! Use XML to persist and transfer data. ! Use ActiveX ® Data Objects (ADO) 2.5 to maintain and transfer data. ! Use Active Directory ™ to store and retrieve static data. ! Use Structured Query Language (SQL) and stored procedures in Microsoft SQL Server ™ version 7.0 to work with dynamic data. ! Apply the principles of the Microsoft Solutions Framework (MSF) to create conceptual, logical, and physical designs. viii Advanced Techniques for Designing Distributed Applications for Windows® 2000 Course Objectives After completing this course, the student will be able to: ! Divide an enterprise application into layers: user services, business/Web facade, business services, data access layer (DAL), data services, and system services. ! Apply design patterns such as Facade and Queue to enhance logical design. ! Apply architecture templates to the logical design of an enterprise application. ! Create physical designs to use specific technology programming models such as transaction services, event services, and messaging services. ! Create the logical and physical designs for user services. ! Create the logical and physical designs for a Web services facade. ! Create the logical and physical designs for a business services facade. ! Create the logical and physical designs for business logic (connected or disconnected). ! Create the logical and physical designs for a transactional DAL. ! Create the logical and physical designs for a nontransactional DAL. ! Create the logical and physical designs for data services. ! Create the logical and physical designs for system services.
