Description:

The XSTM project started early 2006 with the goal of making distributed applications easier to write, scale and maintain. The proposed programming model makes it is easy to get started. You can modify one of our samples to specify the objects to be replicated, and you end up with your own working distributed application. This book will help you go further and take full advantage of XSTM to build fast and robust solutions, whether you want to build an Ajax web site, a Smart Client or make your application scale over a cluster. We will go through each of the important notions: what it means to replicate objects between machines, how much it can simplify your architecture, how to use transactions to modify objects in a clean and atomic way, and much more.
