Pro ASP.NET 2.0 E-Commerce

in C# 2005

Dear Reader, Throughout my many years of developing e-commerce applications, I have encountered countless problems and solutions that I have always wanted to share with my fellow developers This book is the product of those experiences

Pro ASP.NET 2.0 E-Commerce in C# 2005 discusses all the decisions you

have to make when designing and developing an ASP.NET 2.0 e-commerce application for a client, from gathering the requirements to deploying the application Because e-commerce is often a vague concept, it can be hard at first to pin down exactly what is involved in a successful solution To overcome this problem, I have created a fictitious company, Little Italy Vineyards, that I use

as a case study throughout this book Using this real-world approach, I show you how to turn e-commerce concepts into code

After you have read this book and followed the case study from beginning to end, you will have a solid understanding of how to develop a professional ASP.NET 2.0 e-commerce application that is scalable and secure Specifically, you will learn about the finer points of application architecture, about how to set up your Visual Studio 2005 project correctly, and about how to obtain and install the SSL certificates you will need I cover the software engineering decisions extensively, as you might expect, but I also cover all the business elements you need to know to develop and maintain a successful e-commerce application that will fulfill your client’s expectations

Thank you for reading; I wish you every success in your development efforts
