Concurrency and Other Data Topics from Frans
Frans is the
LLBLGen, one of the first (and imo, better) data layer generators out there. He's also been posting some pretty interesting reads on a variety of things, many of them, surprisingly enough, relating to data layers and their attendant architecture.
I don't agree with everything he's said, but I do agree with a lot of it. More importantly, what he's been writing is good thought provoking stuff. I liked
today's post on concurrency control inasmuch as it made me think of concurrency from a broader usability standpoint besides just limiting contention/overwrites and go, 'yes, there is a better way to lock and it might be miles from the database itself'.
