authentication

2009-04-23T09:27:03-07:00

* Overview of varying technologies: * OpenID ( && ) * Industry standard where the user creates an OpenID via a number of possible providers and the authentication & authorization (to see profile information) is handled by the third party. Mostly designed for authenticating users where you want to ensure they are who they claim to be, but not necessarily any information about them. (E.g…

event_driven_architecture

2008-07-30T23:23:38-07:00

Event Driven Architecture An architectural pattern where the applications are built around the processing of triggered events. Often event based architectures differ from other SOA styles only in their focus. E.g. You might have very similar architectural drawings for a service oriented solution as compared to an event oriented solution. The major difference may be around how you think about the process flows in the system.

grid_computing

2008-07-30T23:23:38-07:00

Grid Computing Grid computing is sort of like a more extreme version of server clustering. The idea is you submit work to a grid of computers and deal w/ it as a logical server w/o knowing much about what servers are actually in the grid or which is handling your compute needs. Typically the grid is very large (100's or even 1000's of servers) and exists across the network or on the internet. It is inherently a distributed computing environment.

If so, you may need to add the unsaved-value=“0” attribute to the mapping. This often manifests itself by saving another copy of the same record. * I try to use the non-primitive object alternative for hibernate primary keys because the use of primitiv…

service_oriented_architecture

2008-07-30T23:23:44-07:00

Service oriented architecture (SOA) A pattern where the application or system is composed of services that are independently built and can be used by multiple clients. SOA relies on a distributed computing environment and often uses either messaging (Enterprise Service Bus - ESB]) or Web Services to interact with the services.
