Hi, my business objects will be going over the wire to a remote data server (possibly far away on the internet!) and will be accessing a database there. I know business objects are more efficient than datasets going over the wire, but I am still concerned about speed and impacts of my design.
Say for example I have a master/detail grid. My read only base list is used for the master list which shows partial information as a ReadOnlyBase<MyObjSessionInfo>, when I click on this item I then request a specific item from the business object list and all the details (including child lists) are retrieved as a full blown object and shown in the detail section of the form.
I know this is a question is dependent on how fast the internet is and how many people are hitting the server, but for a 4k data fetch being performed on the server in the data portal method how would the experience differ from a LAN to an internet connection, given we have a reasonable speed internet line and ping from client to server of 300ms?
Also say security is a concern is it possible to for CSLA to encrypt the connection between itself and the server when serializing objects to be sent over the wire?
Are there better ways I could investigate for my project (i.e. web services)?
Many thanks in advance,
Chris
