Synopsis

Since the announcement of .NET, a lot of attention has been paid to the new inter-application communication possibilities offered by web services. But in fact, the core technology in .NET for communication between distributed application components is .NET remoting. Remoting is the successor to Microsoft DCOM, and enables .NET application developers to easily access code running on remote computers.

Remoting offers developers many ways to customize the communications process, for efficiency, security, performance and power, and allows seamless integration of components running on several computers into a single application. This power makes remoting appear complex and difficult, but this book exposes the full power of remoting to Visual Basic .NET developers in a way that will ensure they have a deep understanding of what remoting is capable of, and how they can make it work the way they want.
