This book introduces a new approach for modeling large enterprise systems: the software fortress model. In the software fortress model, an enterprise architecture is viewed as a series of self-contained, mutually suspicious, marginally cooperating software fortresses interacting with each other through carefully crafted and meticulously managed treaty relationships. The software fortress model is an intuitive, simple, expressive approach that maps readily to existing technologies such as .NET and Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE). This book is designed to meet an immediate need to define, clarify, and explain the basics of this new modeling methodology for large enterprise software architectures.
Roger Sessions is one of the world's leading experts in enterprise software architectures and the developer of the software fortress model. He has written six books and dozens of articles. He writes and publishes ObjectWatch, a widely read, highly regarded newsletter covering hotly debated topics on high-end software technologies. More than 50,000 people have attended his architect-level workshops in more than 30 countries.
