Tech-Ed 2007: Day 1

blogs.msdn.com — It’s the end of the first day at Tech Ed 2007. I flew into Orlando yesterday, taking the 6 am flight from Seattle.

Part 2 - Leveraging Workflow Foundation - Invest in the Infrastructure

keithelder.net — In Part 1 of Leveraging Workflow Foundation we discussed how Workflow Foundation is just an API. Since APIs don't provide business value out of the box, it is important engineers exploring Workflow Foundation for the first time approach it in the same manner they would any API: write once, run everywhere. In other words, instead of building out the workflow components for one application, look at it from the 10,000 feet view. This is of course going to take more time than one might originally think so be sure to allow for this in development time. We'll look at the basics engineers starting with Workflow Foundation will need to think about to invest in their workflow infrastructure. Who knows, we may even find some rusty washers and shinny pennies along the way. read more...

A Discussion on Domain Driven Design: Entities

lostechies.com — My last post was intended to help better explain how the ubiquitous language forms the back bone of Domain Driven Design (DDD). I am hoping that this post helps to explain some of the more foundational artifacts of DDD, namely Entities. What is an entity? Is it a business object? Is it a class that has persistence? Is it a sentient being manifested in the form of a polymorphic construct that is based on a real world object? Ok well maybe the latter is definitely out of scope but as we see there are many possibilities of what an entity is. Hopefully I will help to shed some light on the subject. Either that or I will help to perpetuate the existing confusion. At least we go somewhere! read more...
