Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Since the announcement of .NET, a lot of attention has been paid to the new inter-application communication possibilities offered by web services. But in fact, the core technology in .NET for communication between distributed application components is .NET remoting. Remoting is the successor to Microsoft DCOM, and enables .NET application developers to easily acess code running on remote computers.
Remoting offers developers many ways to customize the communications process, for efficiency, security, performance and power, and allows seamless integration of components running on several computers into a single application. This power makes remoting appear complex and difficult, but this book exposes the full power of remoting to Visual Basic .NET developers in a way that will ensure they have a deep understanding of what remoting is capable of, and how they can make it work the way they want.

Some more advanced books on remoting made me feel like I was drowning; especially for a developer going into remoting for the very first time. This book really breaks the concepts down through clear examples and reasons these concepts are there to begin with. He goes into a decent amounnt of detail on the concepts that leaves me feeling like I am learning on every page. I am extremely happy that I bought this book.

I am new in area of remoting. So, when I bought this book I expect get ideas how to use remoting to solve my problems. The authors instead spend a lot on how to use streams, serializing and so on. Same ideas are repeated through the book - like use binary formatters to compress messages.
If you know remoting but new to VB.Net this book is OK, otherwise ...

A very enjoyable and thorough book for those who need to use remoting in their development projects - if you want to know about remoting for VB.NET then this is the book for you. The book covers all the topics that you'll need to employ remoting. Synchronous and asynchronous remoting are covered as is a chapter explaining custom sinks and how to add them into the remoting process (something that I've yet to find explained in other books in as clear and concise a manner). Debugging and error handling is also covered, something that isn't given much space in the Microsoft documentation and this chapter will prove invaluable for any developers. Now if the publishers would only do a C# version of this book :-).
