This is, hopefully, a continuation of yesterdays architecture post. Let’s hope Victor Spivak remembers.

• It is going to be a lot of repeat. Only taking notes on new information. (Look here for more Architecture notes.)
• All new clients mentioned previously are all DFS based, not WDK-based.
• Can morph lightweight sysobjects back into heavy weight sysobjects, but you can’t take sysobjects that were always heavy into lightweight. (You could probably write a migration application that will do it effectively.)
• In D6.5, UCF has High-latency network support
  • Reduce Chattiness
  • Parallel downloading
  • Improved UCF Init cycle
  • Application streaming
  • Implementation for .NET (6.5 sp1)
• BOCS cache encryption in D6.5
• Adding caching to ACS (helps with slow storage)
• HTTP byte ranges support (PDF viewers) in BOCS 6.5
• D6 DFC is 20-40% faster than equivalent DFC 5.3 because of Java DMCL
• D7 and beyond
  • D7 Unified Logging and Tracing
  • Failover for Method server
  • Redundancy for ACS, JMS
  • Support restarting failed jobs and methods
  • Enable rolling upgrade of content server

Need to find coffee. Off to Summit Leaders Club.
