I've been getting a lot of e-mail on when the Composite / OBA Applications Book would be available for download or purchase. We have launched a free version online. It's about 100 pages total printed.
This book is about composite applications and how they can be developed as OBAs using the 2007 Microsoft Office System. It provides an overview of the technologies available in the 2007 Microsoft Office System, and gives several examples from various industries to build OBAs using composition at the presentation, business-logic, and data layers. This book is meant for solution architects, industry architects, or senior developers who are designing, developing, and deploying composite applications.
Discussed in this book is comprehensive guidance for making architecture decisions around real-world business and technology challenges. We will be breaking architecture up into separate concerns that will help identify varying aspects of the architecture. These different concerns will include reviewing the security, logical, physical, communication, and information architectures. It will also help you identify opportunities in your business for other areas in which these technologies can address your needs.
