Microsoft .NET: Architecting Applications for the Enterprise

Just finished reading the above - here are the key things I have taken away from it as a collection of links:

Architecture Today

• ANSI/IEEE standard 1471 / ISO/IEC 42010:2007 - Recommended Practice for Architectural Description of Software-intensive Systems
• ISO/IEC 19501 - Unified Modeling Language (UML) Version 1.4.2
• ISO/IEC 9126 - Software Engineering Product Quality
• ISO/IEC 12207 - Software Lifecycle Processes
• Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture - Martin Fowler
• Murphy's Laws

UML Essentials

• UML & MDA vs Domain Specific Languages (DSL)
• UML round trip engineering
• UML as a sketch vs UML as a blueprint
• UML Distilled
• Use Cases
• Class Diagram
• Sequence Diagram

Design Principles & Patterns

• Layers - Spaghetti Code vs Lasagne Code
• High Cohesion / Single Responsibility Principle
• Loose Coupling
• Separation of Concerns
• Design Guidelines for Developing Class Libraries
• Design patterns: elements of reusable object-oriented software - Gang of Four
  
• Open/Closed Principle
• Liskov Substitution Principle
  
• Dependency Inversion Principle
  
• Refactoring to Patterns - Joshua Kerievsky
• Data & Object Factory
• Anti-Patterns
• IoC Frameworks - Unity, Castle Windsor, Ninject, Spring.NET, StructureMap
• Design for Testability - Stubs, Doubles, Mocks / Fakes
• Mocking Frameworks - NMock, TypeMock, RhinoMocks
• Design by Contract - Code Contracts
• Unit Testing Tools - MSTest, MBUnit, NUnit, XUnit.NET
• Static Analysis Tools - NDepend, FxCop, StyleCop
• Security - Security Development Cycle (SD3+C), Code Access Security, STRIDE Threat Model, DREAD, XSS, SQL Injection, Buffer Overflow Exploitation, Fuzz Testing
• Aspect-Oriented Programming - Policy Injection Application Block
• DRY, YAGNI, Once and Only Once

The Business Layer

• Transaction Script pattern and Command pattern
• Table Module pattern - ADO.NET DataSet
• Active Record pattern - LINQ-to-SQL, Castle ActiveRecord
• Domain Model pattern - Domain Driven Design

The Service Layer

• Service Layer pattern
• Remote Façade pattern
• Data Transfer Object (DTO) pattern
• Adapter pattern
• Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)

The Data Access Layer (DAL)

• CRUD Services - Data Mapper pattern
• Query Services - Query/Criteria Object pattern
• Transactions - Unit of Work pattern
• Concurrency - Optomistic Concurrency (OOL), Pessimistic Concurrency
• Separated Interface pattern - Repository pattern
• Plugin pattern / Service Locator pattern - Inversion of Control pattern / Dependency Injection
• Identity Map pattern
• Lazy (Deferred) Loading pattern - dynamic fetch plans
• Object Relational Mappers - Entity Framework (EF), LINQ-to-SQL, NHibernate, EntitySpaces, Genome, LLBLGen Pro
• Persistence Ignorance (PI) - POCO's
• Myths about Stored Procedures

The Presentation Layer

• Autonomous View (AV)
• Separated Presentation
• Model View Controller (MVC) - ASP.NET MVC, Castle MonoRail, Model2
• Model View Presenter (MVP) - Passive View (PV), Supervising Controller (SVC)
• Presentation Model (PM) - Model View ViewModel (MVVM)
• Testing the UI - WatiN, Selenium, WebAii
• Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) - Cucumber, SpecFlow, NBehave
