Dont use services unless you necessarily need them

Pablo M. Cibraro (aka Cibrax) — Sat, 14 May 2011 00:00:00 GMT

There are multiple factors or requirements that might lead you to refactor some functionality into services. Here are some examples, You have explicit requirements to distribute work across machines. This is a typical example of smart client applications (i.e. Silverlight apps), which runs a thin UI layer and have all the backend logic as part of services. You need to run code remotely in a specific machine, so a good choice is to expose that as a service. You need to expose...

Information vs Knowledge Worker

Rob Howards Blog — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 00:00:00 GMT

I've spent the past couple of days in Redmond, WA at Microsoft's Enterprise Partner Summit. A term Microsoft uses just about everywhere is "Information Worker". They have entire business units formed around "IW". This nomenclature is inaccurate, in my opinion, in describing the customer or people that it is being applied to. Information these days is everywhere, is useless by itself, and has only minimal value. It's only when you can apply organization and intelligence to the information thereby...

Acropolis

The Moth — Tue, 15 May 2007 00:00:00 GMT

When I come across Greek codenames internally it always pleases me (sad I know), but of course they cannot be talked about until they are public. It looks like this one is now since it has appeared in the Tech Ed US session list (type "Acropolis" in the keyword box, and then hit the Filter button). Out of curiosity I searched the web and found that there is a reference to Acropolis from over a year ago! So much for the secrecy... :-) ...

Great Web Programming Reference: W3 Schools

Don Kielys Technical Blatherings — Sat, 14 Jan 2006 00:00:00 GMT

Lately I’ve been working on one of those “legacy” applications you hear about sometimes, where you have to go backwards in time. In this case I’m way back in the last millenium, making some major fixes to an ASP Web site developed in the late 90s. It’s for a wonderful niche e-commerce site located here in Fairbanks, and the people are totally fun to work with. So that keeps me sane while I deal with antique technologies.

I’ve long forgotten some of the more arcane details of ASP development and VBScript, but have found a marvelous reference for Web technologies: W3 Schools. It has all kinds of tutorials and references for old and new technologies, and I’ve been living in the VBScript reference section. The site is free, supported by donations and discrete (read: not in-your-face) ads.

They have been a lifesaver the last few weeks.

I have no connection to them. I just want to share a great resource.

Aspose.Grid

GotDotNet: New resources — Fri, 13 Jan 2006 00:00:00 GMT

Aspose.Grid is your total grid solution. Aspose.Grid comes packaged with two different GUI .NET components: one to support desktop applications and another to support web applications. Both versions are equally matched in order to make implementing in either platform a snap. Aspose.Grid provides the ability to import from and export to Excel spreadsheets. Doing so means that anyone familiar with Excel (even end-users) can design the look and feel of a grid. Aspose.Grid also offers an easy to use, feature-rich API which provides developers with complete control over the look, feel and behavior of their grid. And most importantly Aspose.Grid is priced to suit your budget. Nowhere else will you find a component as feature-rich, easy to use and as well priced as Aspose.Grid.
