Write applications in C#/.NET that will stand the test of time, evolving with the information systems they belong to and the services they interoperate with by using standards and solid business-related architecture rules
Key Features
Learn the principles of business-aligned software architecture
Relate theory to several well-known architecture frameworks
Apply the knowledge you gain to create a .NET application with a standard-based API
Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook
Book DescriptionThe software development domain continues to grow exponentially, and information systems have become the backbone of most industries, including non-digital-native ones. However, technical debt, coupling, and a high level of maintenance – sometimes bringing IT systems to a complete halt – continue to present a problem. The software industry has to still apply standards-based, modular, and repeatable approaches that exist in other industries.
This book demonstrates such methods in action, particularly business/IT alignment principles. As you progress, you’ll cover advanced concepts and theories currently researched in academia. Then, you’ll be guided toward a practical framework to transfer these approaches to actual software architecture. Finally, a dedicated section will help you apply the knowledge you gain to a sample application in .NET where API design, dependency management, and code writing will be explained in detail to relate to the business-alignment principles explained at the beginning. Throughout the book, you’ll get equipped with the skills to create modular, long-living applications that serve your users better.
By the end of this .NET book, you’ll not only have learned new concepts but also gained the ability to apply them immediately to your upcoming software endeavors. What you will learn
Comprehend the main problems in real-world software development
Understand what business alignment means
Create a four-layer map of an information system
Become proficient in SOLID, C4, and domain-driven design (DDD) architecture
Get up to speed with semantics, APIs, and standards for better interoperability
Include BPM, MDM, and BRMS in information systems
Design an application with strict responsibility separation
Who this book is forThis book is for software architects who want to have an in-depth understanding of how their applications will be used and how they can fight technical debt as well as design software to keep it working even when business requirements evolve. If your previous software designs experienced progressive loss of performance and the capacity to evolve, this book is for you.
Author Biography
Jean-Philippe Gouigoux started programming in 1985 and has never stopped since then, working as a developer, then an architect, an R&D manager, and today, the chief technical officer of a group of software editors. Coming from a mechanical engineering background, his main career goal is to apply a rigorous approach to information technology and try to make information systems as modular and standardized as mechanical systems. JP has written more than 10 technical books and has spoken at around 100 conferences and on university courses, teaching architecture, testing, service-oriented design, performance in .NET, Docker and Kubernetes, and so on. He has been a Microsoft MVP since 2011.
