Í þessum fyrsta fyrirlestri fjöllum við um Enterprise forrit, hvað einkennir þau og hvaða áskoranir við stöndum frammi fyrir. Byrjum á því að skoða forritunarlausnir í samhengi við þróun undanfarinna ára. Menn tala um að nú séu "post PC" tímabil þar sem einkatölvan eins og við þekkjum hana er bara eitt af mörgum tækjum sem við notum. Forritun okkar geta verið snjallsíma öpp eða PC forrit og gögnin okkar eru í tölvuskýjunum. Við skilgreinum hvað er átt við með Enterprise forritun og tökum fjölmörg dæmi. Skilgreinum B2B, B2C og tegundir af lausnum. Þá lítum við á þróun enterprise lausna frá Client-Server til gagnavera sem hýsa microservice lausnir. Slæmu fréttirnar eru að það er mjög erfitt að smíða svona lausnir, en góðu fréttirnar eru að við höfum fjölmörg tæki og tól til að hjálpa okkur.

25. Enterprise Application

41. Enterprise Applications
 Software running in corporate data centers
 Characteristics
– Involve data, some times huge amounts
– Concurrent data access, multiple users
– Lot of user interface screens
– Integration with other enterprise application
– Use of middleware software, such as databases,
application servers, web servers
– Operated by specialists – system operators

42. Examples
 B2C - Business to Consumer
– E-commerce web sites such as Amazon, eBay
– Commercial services like banking
 B2B – Business to Consumer
– Payroll, patient records, shipping tracking, cost
analysis, credit scoring, insurance, supply chain,
accounting, customer service, and foreign exchange
trading
 Content
– Stock quotes, sports results, email, blogs

43. Software as a Service (SaaS)
 “On-demand” software
– Cloud computing
 IT infrastructure demands
– Communication: interacting with the software
– Scalability: dealing with fluctuation
– Dependability: available 24/7

44. Software as a Service Examples
 E-mail services
 Project management
 Blog services

45. What is not necessarily characteristic of enterprise software?
A) Has many concurrent users working on the same data
B) Integrates with other IT systems
C) Deploys some form of distribution strategy
D) Is operated by specialists not by the users

50. Client-Server
 Two-layer systems
– Thick client on PCs handle user interface and connect
to servers for data

51. Client-Server
 The client handles all computation – domain
logic (business logic)
– Limited reusability
– Versioning is a challenge

52. Move to Three Tiers
 Three Layers
– Presentation Layer for the User Interface
– Domain Layer for the domain logic
– Data Source Layer for the data access

53. Enter the Web Layer
 The Web added new challenges
– The browser accesses strings of tags (HTML)
– Move the logic from client to a web layer
– Web layer adds connectivity by HTTP protocols

54. Application Servers
 Domain Components are deployed on
Application Servers
– Distributed Multi-tiered Applications
– Example:
• Web Servers, Spring, EJB containers

55. Service Oriented Architecture
 Built software into independent services
 Use APIs such as SOAP to expose functionality
Web

56. Microservices
 Built software into (smaller) independent
services
 Use RESTful APIs with Json

App

LayerREST
CMS
RESTHTML

57. Client Types
 Native Applications – Apps
– Usually use some OS GUI and APIs
– Windows, Linux, MacOS, iOS, Andriod
– Communication can be anything
 Embedded
– Run inside Web Browsers
– Flash, Java Applets
– Communication with XML using HTTP

58. Client Types
 Rich Internet Application (RIA)
– JavaScript calls REST/SOAP services for data
– HTML with XML/Json using Ajax/jQuery
 HTML Presentation in Browsers
– All functionality is server side
– Simple HTML

59. Tiers vs. Layers
 Tier implies physical layer
– Example:
• Client-server is two-tier system: client on one machine,
server on another
 Layers do not need to run on separate machines
– Layers can be on the same machine
– Example:
• Web system with Web Layer, Domain Layer and Data Source
Layer on the same machine, then the database on a
separate machine

60. N-tier Web App Architecture
 Classic architecture

61. Which of the following statements is not true?
A) Versioning is only a challenge with client-service model
B) Layers need not be on a separate machines
C) Web servers can be used as application servers
D) Scalability is achieved by duplicating the system
QUIZ

63. Building Blocks

64. Building Enterprise Applications
 Building computer systems is hard
– As the complexity of the system gets greater, the
task of building the software gets
exponentially harder

65. Building Enterprise Applications
 Building computer systems is hard
Design
Pattern
Middleware
Frameworks
OO
Programming
Software
Architecture

66. Software Architecture
 Shared understanding of system’s design by the
expert developers on a project
– Highest-level breakdown of a system into its parts
– Decisions that are hard to change
 Architecture influences design
of components, technology,
performance and middleware
 There are always options

67. Object Oriented Programming
 OO is key to development of systems
– Design for reusability, flexibility and performance
 One of the biggest hurdles for developers
– Each component should be simple with simple task
– Involves understanding of interaction of parts
“OO design is more important than specific technologies, such as J2EE. We
should try to avoid letting our technology choices, such as J2EE, constrain
our ability to use true OO design”
– Rod Johnson
“If the design is good, there is no code”
– Jónas Þór, Senior Betware developer

68. Design Patterns
 Design using known ideas
– Design patterns are standard solutions to common
problems in software design
– Systematic approach for problems that reoccur in
software development
– Patterns have name and definitions - not language
dependant
 History
– Landmark book from 1995: Design Patterns:
Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
Gang of Four (GoF)

69. Middleware
 Enterprise system are built on middleware
– Can cover a broad spectrum of software and generally sits
between an application and an operating system
– For example, databases, application servers, web servers,
messaging systems, transaction monitors
– “The plumbing” – the infrastructure
 Horizontal market
– Solves common problems – not specific business
requirements
– Low-level system

70. Frameworks
 Frameworks define the support structure for how to
organize and build systems
– Can improve productivity
– We can use existing frameworks or build our own
 Frameworks implement common problems
– Developers extend and add their business requirements
 Framework design
– Use inheritance, inversion of control, interfaces and helper
classes
– Implement design patterns

71. Which of the following statement is not true?
A) Design patterns are solutions to common problems
B) Object oriented programing is good for general problems
C) Frameworks are used to increase productivity
D) Middleware can solve business related problems
