Then, the natural question follows: How do we architect non-monolithic systems ? The newest round of technologies such as WCF, LINQ (especially LINQ to SQL), and ADO.NET Data Services promote and enable non-monolithism. However, it seems that everyone and their brother (not your case) blogs and/or writes books on the technologies for the technologies sake. What's missing are examples of the design of simple, end-to-end systems that leverage decoupling/non-monolithism with these modern technologies. I haven't found yet any books/blog posts/MSDN articles targeted at the independent developer (e.g. Micro ISV), freelance IT consultant or architect that "coaches" him throughout the thought process required for the successful design and implementation of such non-monolithic solutions. What would you recommend ? Thanks. Cheers. Nice post.
