• Clustering RabbitMQ on Windows

    Getting up and running with RabbitMQ (especially when using MassTransit) is a breeze. It may not exactly be the NancyFX Super-Duper-Happy-Path™, but it comes closer to it than any other ServiceBus/Broker I’ve come across. However, the first time I laid eyes on the RabbitMQ guidance for Distribution, High Availability, and Clustering I started thinking that… Continue reading

  • A Trip to CQRS – New Views

    This is part 5 of 5. The entire series is here: Intro Commands Events Authoritative Events New Views We finally have a reasonably flexible architecture to play with.

  • Petite – Why another IoC Container?

    Ouch, this turned into a long boring post. Here’s a tl;dr: “Unity was slow and clumsy, I couldn’t find an alternative that I really enjoyed so I wrote my own container. It’s on NuGet and github!” Since being sold on IoC and Dependency Injection around 2008 I’ve been using Unity as the container-of-choice. Why? Well,… Continue reading

  • Entile – MVVM and Extra Information

    In my last post I did the easy and demo friendly 5-minute install of Entile. But what if you need some more control?

Prerequisites You’ll need the following installed on your developer machine: Visual… Continue reading
