From the Back Cover
The complete real-world guide to architecting UNIX-based enterprise networks.
Architecting Enterprise Solutions with UNIX Networking is the first step-by-step guide to building UNIX-based architectures that maximize performance, growth, reliability, manageability, and security.
Start with a high-level overview of the key principles of UNIX-based architecture and design from requirements analysis and team reviews to what-if analysis and capacity planning. Understand two-tier, three-tier, and N-tier architectures and how enterprise applications like SAP, Oracle Financials, Baan, and PeopleSoft fit into them. Discover proven techniques for forecasting and ensuring high-availability and scalability, including when to use server farms, Fibre Channel media, and other key technologies. Walk through UNIX network planning issues in-depth, including:

*Planning IP addressing and DNS.

*Clustering options and alternatives.

*UNIX system and network security, firewalls, and auditing.

*Planning a standards-based electronic messaging architecture.

*Creating manageable networks with SNMP, OpenView, and Web-based administration tools.

Learn how to integrate UNIX-based systems with Windows clients, NT workstations, Macintoshes, Novell LANs, network computers, thin clients, and other devices. Finally, put it all together in four detailed case studies, learning how to architect advanced UNIX networks for video applications, ISPs, engineering firms, and wireless service providers.
