re: Why read uncommitted data?

Lelala — Mon, 18 Mar 2013 10:59:33 GMT

So,

high traffic sites usually use (in most parts of the system) read-uncommit.

A page like Facebook has no neads to read-commit, since most of the data is not essential/critical.

Another story it is when handling payments or "real enterprise" apps (sorry for that: Facebook is NOT an enterprise app from my perspective ;-) )

Depending on your architecture, read-uncommit may give you an additional speed boost.

re: Abusing IsInRole(..) is not done

@Sky, I don't understand your first line. I say that you need query for a certain priviledge. Like access to an operation or even better a task. It is the management layer that should decide if that tasks may be performed by a user. Using whatever relation path mapping expresion you would like to use. I only mention that you MUST NEVER abuse the ROLES infrastructure for storing such data structures.

You are referring to 'enterprise level security' but that is the whole reason for this posts the source blog post as the provided solution is not maintainable!

You can even see that there is a shift coming as the philosophy is shifting towards how stuff should be done much better with Windows Identify Foundation using claims which much better reflect how to manage and check security.

Disagree.

Your above stated preference for Roles over Operations/Tasks is only valid in trivial applications.

Enterprise applications of medium to complex security requirements often need to define roles such as Accountant, with several rights, but also add an Accountant assistant to the Accountant role, *minus* one or more of the Operations (eg: approve expense claims).

You are right about the error as "wms/wmsdev" was the website that existed on that server. You need to target your own specific website there :)

AppCmd.exe is located in the %systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\ directory

you need to "cd" to that directory, then excecute the line above.

BUT, is giving me an error:

( message:Cannot find SITE object with identifier "wms/wmsdev". )

Title?

re: WCF and http (gzip/deflate) compression and Silverlight

Imran — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 15:17:17 GMT

Hi,

We are using Silverlight 4.0 with WCF for Dot Net 4.0 with iis 6.

And our content type for response is application/soap+msbin1.

In iis 7, i have successfully enabled compression by adding application/soap+msbin1 to httpcompression, but not luck in iis 6.

my question is how can i enable dynamic compression this for iis 6 for content type application/soap+msbin1?

Thanks

I don't know anything about the mac. This tool is specifically for Vista/7 because the midi configuration has been changed in behavior.
