Designing for Scalability with Microsoft Windows DNA

Designing for Scalability with Microsoft Windows DNA, 9780735609686 (0735609683), Microsoft Press, 2000

In March 1998, we presented to our clients a technical report entitled En skalbar arkitektur. We wrote it in Swedish, which is our native language. Its purpose was to offer ideas for designing and developing scalable Microsoft Windows applications, using tools such as Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0 and Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) and database management systems such as Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle.

Windows DNA is Microsoft's platform for the development of distributed applications. Figure 1-1 shows an architectural overview of a typical Windows DNA application. We produced this view of an application using Rational Rose 2000. The symbols that look like folders in Figure 1-1 are called packages. They are, however, Unified Modeling Language (UML) packages and not Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) packages. An MTS package is a container for components. You install your compiled MTS components in MTS packages. So an MTS package is a physical thing in a computer, whereas a UML package is a logical container within a UML model of classes that helps categorize the classes of a model. (Note that in Microsoft Windows 2000 the term package has changed to application and MTS has been renamed Component Services.)
