Business Components Factory: A Comprehensive Overview of Component-Based Development for the Enterprise
Author: Oliver Sims
In this book, Peter Herzum and Oliver Sims present a complete component based strategy, the business component approach, that applies and extends component thinking to all aspects of the software life cycle for enterprise systems. The approach includes a conceptual framework that brings components into the world of scalable systems, and outlines the different component granularities.
It also includes a methodology that goes beyond current object-oriented practices to provide the concepts required to meet the real challenges of component-based development. Using their business component approach, the authors then provide a blueprint for a business component factory--a development capability that can produce software with the quality, speed, and flexibility needed to match changing business needs. Sprinkled with guidelines, tips, and architectural patterns, this book fully prepares you for the approaching component revolution.
Praise for Business Component Factory
". . . this book should be very useful for anyone considering the daunting task of adopting component software on an enterprise scale."-Clemens Szyperski (Microsoft Research), Author of the award-winning book, Component Software: Beyond Object-Oriented Programming
"Herzum and Sims do an admirable job of differentiating the different component concepts, allowing this clearly written book to focus on the construction of business systems by non-software practitioners, out of business component parts developed separately (and perhaps for a commodity component marketplace). This is the future of software systems, and this book is a practical, giant step in that direction."-Richard MarkSoley, PhD,Chairman and CEO, OMG
"Finally, a book that takes you from component design all the way down to the middleware on which they are deployed. ItÕs an important contribution to the nascent server-side component discipline written by practitioners for practitioners."-Robert Orfali, Author of Client/Server Survival Guide, Third Edition and Client/Server Programming with Java and CORBA, Second Edition (both from Wiley)

Jeff Sutherland
Herzum and Sims have made important contributions to the software industry through sharing their experience building enterprise systems with the OMG and the annual OOPSLA Business Object Component Workshop. In this latest book, they provide a groundbreaking view of the most recent concepts on component architecture, implementation, and deployment for software development teams. Recommended.

Cory Casanave
The authors take their years of experience to provide a well thought out recipe for building large-scale distributed systems. You will come away from this book with an understanding of how to design and construct software in the large.

Richard Mark Soley
Probably the most confusing term in the IT industry today is components. Like many terms in the field, it has been used and abused to refer to dozens of different, overlapping concepts. This is unfortunate, primarily because for the first time we have a term that can apply to the software nirvana of construction from (perhaps off-the-shelf) parts, without any reference to the underlying implementation technology such as objects. Herzum and Sims do an admirable job of differentiating the different component concepts, allowing this clearly-written book to focus on the construction of business systems by non-software practitioners, out of business component parts developed separately (and perhaps for a commodity component marketplace). This is the future of software systems, and this book is a practical, giant step in that direction.
