This work shows how to merge object technology and client/server systems that offer real business advantages. It involves the development and maintenance of information systems required for survival and success in today's business climate.
As the pace of change in business and technology continues to quicken, the business systems that are key to the enterprise's ability to adapt and prosper must also change rapidly. The expansion of enterprise computing into the world of the Internet makes the task of developing, deploying, and maintaining today's information systems even more challenging. With its modular approach to programming and capacity to manage complexity, object technology holds the key to success for enterprise computing to meet these challenges. Enterprise Computing with Objects helps the reader place rapidly evolving technologies-the Internet, the World Wide Web, distributed computing, object technology and client/server systems-in their appropriate context in relation to modern information systems. The authors distinguish what is essential from what is incidental, while imparting a clear understanding of how the underlying technologies fit together. The book examines essential topics, including data persistence, security, performance, scalability, and development tools. Even readers with existing experience in object technology or client/server programming can benefit from the perspectives offered here.With this book as an aid, designers and developers can better transition their information systems into the twenty-first century.
