About this title

From the Back Cover

Practical, proven, proactive strategies to ensure fast, secure, reliable and supportable distributed computing systems. What's better than having access to a terrific PC troubleshooting team? Not needing them in the first place! And that's what the increasingly popular "bulletproofing" concept is all about. By deploying and managing client/server systems so they work well from the start, many problems and pitfalls can be effectively eliminated. Based on an expert-developed approach, this well-organized, jargon-free guide uniquely covers a wide range of server products and client systems and focuses on practical-not theoretical-issues as it provides invaluable tips and strategies on how to: Build client/server systems, intranets, and extranets; Make them fast enough; Make them secure; Ensure their reliability; Support them while reducing support costs. Stunning 3-D style illustrations enhance the text, while an extensive resources section gives you information on client-server vendors, a glossary of more than 400 terms, and more. As organizations increasingly move to client/server systems, the number of applications and users is skyrocketing, but so are the potential problems. This book's wise anticipatory approach to remediating them-complete with practical examples and tips througout-makes it essential reading for every network or systems manager, administrator, and consultant. A volume in the McGraw-Hill Bulletproofing Series.
