The title should be ‘updates in disconnected distributed applications’, but it will probably get more hits with ‘service oriented’ in the title ;).

Jimmy looks intrigued by a conversation Mats and I had and asks some questions. He already asked me to write something about it and I did not, but answering questions is much easier than writing a white paper on this, so this time I’ll do what he asks ;).

As a background, the idea is that if we could find an easy way to build applications that work well with SOA then we could apply that solution for building any kind of application, while keeping some of the SO advantages in not SO applications.

The idea is to work with services but instead of using a domain model in the middle, map the message to the database, while making sure that the business logic is executed in the right places.

Mats has an interesting post on this.

Fowler has some comments about the Jon Tirsen's post that I commented a while ago.

The VS.NET Enterprise Tools team previewed the DSL support in VS.NET in OOPSLA.

I'm reading 'Sofware Factories', the book where the VS.NET Enterprise Tools guys explain how they think the software development process can be improved dramatically.

Today I demoed DeKlarit to part of the PAG team in Redmond.
