Advanced .NET Remoting (C# Edition) Review by Adnan Masood
Essential "Text Book" for Distributed Application Developer in .NET Platform
I've been working with XML web services for a long time and also have gone through lot of text regarding .NET remoting. Ingo Rammer's book discusses remoting in a very well organized and chronological way making it highly understandable. Advanced .NET Remoting is filled with examples, sample code, screenshots and figures to explain the inter-communication between process boundaries. Ingo has discussed simple topics such as the evolution of how remoting get to what it is now as well as in-depth explanation of refactoring the event handlers. This book helped me understanding the message sinks and how to create custom channels, topics which I didn't feel I grasped fully from readings prior to this book.
I agree with other reviewers that word advanced doesn't fully depict the spirit of this book as it discusses remoting from scratch and doesn't expect much of prior experience. With Indigo round the corner and WSE 3.0 released, this book along with web services knowledge will explain how dramatically communication standards are evolving, for good, making distributed application development easier, reliable and standardized.
