Building Massively Scalable Components with C# : Problem Design Solution

This book offers guidance on solving one of programming's toughest challenges using C# and the unique Wrox Problem-Design-Solution approach.

Designing complex systems that scale up to thousands of clients and are highly secure, reliably fault-tolerant, and functional for real-time applications requires sophisticated programming skills.

Using Wrox's effective Problem-Design-Solution approach, this unique book uses multiplayer gaming as a working example; readers learn to evaluate different design approaches and by the end of the book, they have constructed a complete, reusable solution in C#.

Topics include basic tenets of scalability, evaluating performance metrics of controlled testing, how to conserve bandwidth, effective cryptography, server architecture design, and much more.

Readers will also have access to a working library of robust code and components they can use and reuse in many applications.
