Writing code is an art of some sort. Writing a flexible NLayer application that have all the goodness of a great software can be a daunting task. So many options, so many design patterns and so many decisions to make. I am going to start this weblog trying to achieve the NLayer Nirvana. I do not want to display my database skills and want to jump to code straight away as soon as I can,so I have picked the new age Northwind Database known as Chinook as a starting point. The Chinook database schema represents a digital media store, including tables for artists, albums, media tracks, invoices and customers. The Chinook Database schema can be seen here. I will start playing with the Database to understand it better. Next up I will take a plunge in the Object Model and the Data Access Layer.
For now I know I am going to be using -
1. C# 4.0
2. Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 (till i get my full version copy)
3. Chinook Database on SQL Server 2008 Express with Advanced Services
So, sit back and followy my journey in search of NLayer Nirvana.
