My organisation has started a continuous integration project to automate the build of their large public-facing Web site. By "large", I mean 30+ REST services, content and integration for an external CMS, and several ASP.NET front-ends. The systems are written with a mix of Java and C# deployed to a mix of Linux and Windows Server boxes...

I mean there should be many questions with many options, some questions have just one correct answer and some others have many correct answers. And time controlled. Obviously a DB where to store everything and keep histor...
We are studying the best way to create a new enterprise software. The software will be similar to SAP in term of application style (a database, a lot of input forms, grid reports, internal calculation engine, ...). What is for you the best framework/technology to build it? We are evaluating many technologies like: ASP.NET MVC + Entit...

Is there a methodology to organize and neatly layout class architecture? I find my constructor confusing it consists of many components being initialized followed by several event handlers. In addition, ...
In most of our webapps, we use a three-tier architecture: Controllers/ViewHelpers, Service, and DAO layers. However, some of these items a pretty much boilerplate code. Case in point: most apps database schemas have their own Department table (call it T_DEPARTMENT), and on the code side this requires a Model Class for Department, a Depar...

It is relativility easy to see an architecture error when the project is over. X gave us security problems, or Y gave us a lot of extra work. These are caught in the retrospectives, but it would be nice to catch them earlier. We are planning on carrying out architecture reviews before the coding starts. One way is just to get the archi...
Does anyone know good books that discuss the underlying architectures, in-depth analysis of CPython implementation. Something like how list / tuple / dict implemented (and performance comparison...) OOP discussion in Python context Sorry if it sounds like a silly question :( ...
Most of the javascript I work with is UI code - code that attaches additional functionality to the HTML framework of my pages and interacts with various HTML elements. Overall, I'm in favor of breaking UI code into into modules. For example, if I have code that attaches handlers to back/next buttons that implements carousel behavior, i...

Which tier reside on which machine? How we can identify a particular application as a 2 tier application or 3 tier application. Please explain with example ...
Hi everyone, I'm looking for suggestions, best practices, and if possible open-source examples of a transformation architecture that is flexible and decoupled. I need to change an already existent codebase that based on some analysis is able to convert some old existent apps into something newer. The ins and outs aren't that interesti...
I've got an MVC application written with Zend Framework that pulls data from an Oracle 10g database and displays this data in Tables and Lists and visually enriches this data through colors and charts. There is no ORM and no Create, Update or Delete involved, just pure Reading. The data is inserted from another application. The data in t...

My company's main product is a large monolithic C++ application, used for scientific data processing and visualisation. Its codebase goes back maybe 12 or 13 years, and while we have put work into upgrading and maintaining it (use of STL and Boost - when I joined most containers were custom, for example - fully upgraded to Unicode and t...
Finally, I'm taking a decision to shift from conventional ado.net datasets to Linq2Sql. I'm not migrating my existing projects to Linq2Sql but I'll be using Linq2Sql in new projects from this point forward. I'm responsible for primary design of applications where I work so I look forward to have answers from you for things that I must b...
I raised this question up because I have seen Windows 7 64 bits able to run several 32 bits program without any problem; of course, some run with problems and some refuse to run at all. I am not sure why some 32 bits program can run just fine on 64 bits, but for us, in the future, say, if we have a 128 bit architecture and OS released ...
I have a data processor class which can only perform its primary function once all its member variables have been assigned a value: class { public $firstName; public $lastName; public $ssn; public $accessKey; public function __construct($data = null) { if (is_array($data)) { // Assign the value o...
At my company we are undertaking a large task of creating a new software architecture for our products. Our current architecture has been in use for many product iterations and lasted a long life and it is time for it to retire. The UI architecture is currently implemented in WTL/ATL 3.0 and COM. We have just completed the design of t...
