October OCJUG Meeting

Date

Thursday, October 9

Topic

Life above the Service Tier (SOFEA/SOUI)

Presenter

Dave Ford

Abstract

Earlier this year Ray sent me a paper describing an architecture called SOFEA. The paper corroborates what, in my opinion, is one the most important concepts affecting web developers today. SOFEA is an architectural pattern that is obvious to Flex programmers but, surprisingly, unknown to most AJAX programmers. Thus its biggest impact will be on AJAX developers and particularly Java web developers getting into AJAX.

SOFEA stands for Service Oriented Front End Architecture. Its main premise is that no aspect of presentation logic runs on the server. The Model, the View and Controller should be client-side components and server-side MVC is (according to SOFEA) an anti-pattern. Note: SOFEA is a pattern - not a framework.

This presentations will describe SOFEA, the sequence of events that led me to make SOFEA my standard and the tools, techniques and patterns I use to build SOFEA applications.
