Book Overview

With COM and .NET Component Services, skilled COM developers can leverage their knowledge for the next generation of components to be built for Microsoft's new .NET framework. A primary goal of Microsoft's COM+ is to provide proven design solutions for scalable systems. Assuming experience with classic COM, COM and .NET Component Services focuses on the added services of COM+, including support for transactions, queued components, events, concurrency management, and security. Along the way, it ably demonstrates that COM+ is a masterpiece of design and usability from the ground up--truly a mature set of component services oriented for the middle tier. COM+ provides a foundation for robust, enterprise-wide, mission-critical distributed applications. And it's not limited to Internet applications. You can use COM+ services in the same places as classic COM components: in-house two-tier information systems, client-tier controls, desktop applications, machine control components, and every other conceivable application of COM. COM and .NET Component Services is the first book to stress the importance of learning to use COM+ services for both .NET and COM component-based applications. Since most companies have considerable investment in existing code base and development skills, COM+ can serve as a migration path for companies and developers. Companies can start (or continue) their projects in COM, using COM+ as a supporting platform for component services, and then when the time comes to move to .NET, they can start plugging .NET components seamlessly into the same architecture, reusing and interacting with their existing COM components.

Amazing explanations of COM+ Services

By Thriftbooks.com User, December 7, 2001

I have read several books now on COM+ and MTS before it, and I have never quite understood how everything ties together and works together. So I have been stumbling in the dark on this for years. My components work, but I never knew if they worked optimally. This book changed all that. Finally, it all makes sense. This is by far the best book on this subject that I have read. Every piece of COM+ is explained clearly and with...

Know COM, Learn COM+ and .NET component Services

By Thriftbooks.com User, December 1, 2001

This is one of the best technical books, I have read. It assumes knowledge of COM and object-oriented technologies. The clarity in the areas COM+ interception, threading, security, transaction handling is exceptional.

This book succeeds in demystifying COM+ component services.

By Thriftbooks.com User, October 28, 2001

More than just a how-to book, this book clearly explains the fundamental concepts behind component-based distributed development, and provides an appreciation for why a component infrastructure like COM+ is a God-send to COM and .NET component developers.In addition to describing COM+ features and their use, from developer and administrative perspectives, Lowy provides motivation to take advantage of COM+ features by presenting...

Awesome book!

By Thriftbooks.com User, October 25, 2001

Come on, techies like us know that .NET uses COM+ to provide the Component services like Transaction Management, Queued components and the like. Hence it is natural that COM+ be covered first in detail. Then the author explains how to use it from .NET components. Very well laid out. Buy this book!

Excellent Coverage of COM+

By Thriftbooks.com User, October 25, 2001

If anyone thinks that COM+ is going away, they are misguided. .NET will still rely on all of the infrastructure for transactional applications that COM+ provides.Lowy has provided an excellent explanation of COM+ and its architecture and then how .NET will fit in. The chapter on XP is also excellent. Anyone who reads this book could definitely put it in the category of blend between Pattison's ease of reading and Ewald's...
