Designing Applications for the Network
February 8, 1999

Whether you're building, deploying, or maintaining a custom application, it is impossible to ignore its very foundation -- the network. From the ground up, applications must be constructed with the network infrastructure in mind, a fact which unites IT management and IS development efforts under the common goal of creating a distributed, network-savvy application that is at once scalable, flexible, and reliable.

In this month's Network Design Manual installment, we tackle these issues, likewise, from the ground up. We begin with an introduction to post-client/server application architectures, called of object-oriented client/server Internet (OCSI) environments. We then continue with a more in-depth exploration of distributed application technologies, including CORBA and DCOM. And finally, to pull these ideas together, we conclude with a practical guide to OCSI application design and planning, showing you how to plan for and design a network-savvy application.

When you've finished reading these chapters, don't forget to fill out our networked applications quiz, where we'll test the very limits of your OCSI IQ. Those with the top scores will qualify for a giveaway of the books used in creation of this month's Network Design Manual, compliments of Prentice Hall Professional Technical Reference.

Without further ado, in this installment of the Network Design Manual you'll find the following:
