The world is moving to HTML5." (Read more) So what HTML 5 is all about? The definition from Wikipedia: "HTML5 is the proposed next standard for HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0 and DOM Level 2 HTML.

In Microsoft® SharePoint® Server 2010, services are no longer contained within a Shared Services Provider (SSP). Instead, the infrastructure for hosting services moves into SharePoint® Foundation 2010 and the configuration of service offerings is much more flexible. Individual services can be configured independently and third-party companies can add services to the platform. More granular

I've been designing .NET applications using ASP.NET Web Services since 2004. Web Services is the great tool for building service-oriented architecture (SOA) systems and connecting applications in different environments. But, it does not solve some other important problems and you need to use another tools e.g. .NET Remoting, Enterprise Services, Web Services Enhancements (WSE), System.Messaging,

You may heard of Hibernate if people are talking about ORM. What ORM tools can Microsoft deliver? Here you go: The ADO.NET Entity Framework is an Object/Relational Mapping (ORM) framework that enables developers to work with relational data as domain-specific objects, eliminating the need for most of the data access plumbing code that developers usually need to write.

I had a long discussion with a friend of mine on applying Model View Controller (MVC) in modern web application development. My view to the value of this design pattern is: It depends! You can read more about MVC on ASP.NET MVC , MSDN, Java Patterns or a pet shop example. .

So inspired by Amit Unde after reading this article. ... Being an architect is tough! What architects do is a mystery to much of the world; this is hardly surprising, because an architect's work is intangible—"thought-ware," if you will—and it happens in the background.
