The second covers the Web, with a focus on Web Services technologies, Microsoft’s .NET and the Java Enterprise Edition. The last three parts look at a number of reliability and fault-tolerance issues and techniques, with an emphasis on replication applied in Web Services settings. Topics and features: * Explains fault-tolerance in clear, readily understood terms with concrete examples drawn from real-world settings * A practical focus aimed at building "mission-critical" networked applications that keep work
