were looking for a similar solution, however cannot risk moving to BD (lots of existing code needing to be re-tested etc) Is there no neat way of using a dll without resorting to web services ?
Seems the extra overhead of TX/RX in a web service is redundant for using a piece of code that may be on the same machine. > Dave, MySpace is not yet running entirely on BD, so the problems > you're seeing may just as well be code running on CF5, but failing > simply because the volume of traffic is absolutely staggering. > > MySpace is either the 3rd or 4th highest trafficed web site of all, > above google, (in terms of page views), depending on who you talk to > (see http://www.businessweek. > com/technology/content/nov2005/tc20051115_908925.htm or http://news. > designtechnica.com/article8875.html for samples). > > That it's working at all with such volumes on CF5 is impressive to > many (and I don't mean that as a slap, but we all know CFMX was > designed to address perceived scalability issues with CF5.) > > But MySpace knew that the time would come when CF5 would no longer cut > it, and while they tried CFMX and passed on that, they were > considering a move to .NET (and pure ASP.NET), when they learned of us. > > > After testing last year showed that their code would not only work but > work better on BD.NET, they bought and started making the move.
