Sample MXML Flex Application

The primary reason why I think Flex is awesome is it's easiness of use in creating great rich internet application. Secondly- platform in-dependency. I can code with out having to worry about the browsers. For back-end I have wide range of choice php, java, .NET ..c# etc. Also, there is wide range of resource over internet in case of any problem. Flash player is readily available almost in any machines around the world. Here is an end to end Flex application.

SAAS Simple Maturity Model

There are two architectural models – commonly referred as SAAS Maturity models- that describe the transition of a service to what is called Multi-tenant efficient, highly scalable application. The SAAS Maturity model described by Microsoft has four distinct stages and is illustrated below. Another similar well-known model for SaaS-maturity is known as Forrester-model but adds another stage known as "Dynamic Business Apps-as-a-service". The three key Attributes of a SAAS Architecture: Configurability: Metadata used to configure the way the application behaves for customers Multi-tenant Efficiency : Maximizing the sharing of resources across tenants Scalability: Maximizing concurrency, resource efficiency SAAS Simple Maturity Model (Microsoft, 2006) SaaS Maturity Model (Forres

SpringBoot : Performance War

Reactive Systems are designed to address challenges posed by modern software systems - the challenges related to large number of users and high throughput. Reactive systems are expected to be highly responsive, resilient, elastic and message driven. In this article we will: Build a set of fully non-blocking REST API using SpringBoot 2.0, WebFlux and Reactive Redis. Performance test the above Reactive APIs against the traditional non-reactive APIs. The code used in this example can be downloaded from GitHub Step 1: Create a skeleton Reactive WebFlux SpringBoot project Create a SpringBoot maven project using - https://start.spring.io/ Add the following dependencies: spring-boot-starter-web spring-boot-starter-data-redis spring-webflux spring-boot-starter-data-redis-reactive Refer to the dependencies in pom.xml Step 2: Create Domain Objects The demo project uses the domain objects Customer and Account . A customer can have multiple accounts.

Java Web Framework Comparison

Wikipedia has listed over 85 web applications frame works with Java based on the top – 28. Below table lists of most widely used web Application Frameworks products available today. Product what type of project is best fit? Struts 2 The new version Struts 2.0 is a combination of the Sturts action framework and Webwork (a total redesign). Struts2 may a good fit for an enterprise application when there is existing Struts resource and projects of medium complexity. Spring MVC Good choice for medium sized project. Convention-based defaults for controllers, model object names, and view resolves. Spring MVC addresses request-driven processing at the HTTP level. It does not aim to provide a component model like JSF. Stripes
