Dot-com infrastructure failures often make headlines -- and in most cases, they're directly attributable to underlying architectural shortcomings. In this book, Sun consultants offer expert guidance on next-generation architecture for dot-coms -- and on the related design and implementation issues that are critical to every Internet-focused business. Dot-Com & Beyond reviews today's most powerful Internet-related opportunities for improving business efficiency, reaching new markets, and establishing "time-based" value chains. It then provides comprehensive guidance on implementing IT architectures that can support these new applications. The book introduces Sun's exclusive "3-dimensional methodology," and the key architectural, design, and implementation practices needed to create an effective Internet infrastructure. Discover how to build architectures that last, by designing for systematic qualities; how to manage dot-com projects effectively; and what future dot-com infrastructures will look like. The book also contains a start-to-finish case study drawn from an actual project at a leading Fortune 500 company.
For all developers, system architects, e-commerce managers, and other IT professionals seeking better ways to leverage Internet technologies.
