Description:
This book will inspire you with a range of ideas on how data can be used to drive Web applications, and how that data can be most effectively utilized at each level of the design. Inefficient data use leads to the sort of slow, unresponsive Web applications that nobody enjoys using. By making good use of both server and client-side code, we can solve these problems. This book will arm you with the techniques you need to build Web applications that fly.
The book is a voyage of exploration through almost all aspects of building ASP.NET applications that handle data and work across the Internet (or other HTTP networks, such as local Intranets). It takes a practical approach to building task-specific components, Web pages and Web applications based on a server running ASP.NET. The book focusses on n-tier architecture design and the way it can be coded, using SQL Server as a data source and simple Web server hardware.
The ASP.NET code in this book is presented in VB.NET, while client-side code is presented in JavaScript. A C# version of the code is also available for download from the Wrox website along with the VB.NET.
This book will cover:
* The new .NET philosophy for managing relational and XML data
* The techniques you need to make this philosophy work in the real world
* Solid, n-tier architecture design
* Using the .NET data management classes to access and update a data store
* Maintaining data integrity by efficiently resolving concurrency errors
* Techniques for building reusable, task-specific data tier components
* How to design applications to exploit many different kinds of client device.
