    3 out of 5 stars Lists of all things great and small.......2002-09-18

    Although I agree that the authors have produced a list of many aspects of the enterprise system life cycle, the book is no more than that, a list of all these things. It provides no guidelines in choosing among methods, no pro's and cons. The importance of all the mentioned items is given -the why it is important- but the authors provide no insight into how this could be accomplished. There is no indepth analysis of any of the subjects.

    So, as an overview this book is good, but do no expect anything more than just that, an overview.

    5 out of 5 stars Complete roadmap towards best practices and processes.......2001-08-28

    This book provides a macro view of a comprehensive architecture and then systematically decomposes it into its component parts. The scope of architecture goes well beyond the technical underpinnings by extending to processes and tools. The first section covers an overview of "netcentric" computing and ties it to business imperatives. "Netcentric" within the context is all encompassing and fits within e-business and the older client/server paradigms. Technical components are thoroughly dissected in Section II, and are placed into the framework of processes and services. I especially liked the operations architecture discussed because it is often overlooked. Another excellent chapter in this section covers transition frameworks, which addresses some of the thorniest issues faced by CIOs and operations managers as systems evolve to fit the e-commerce and extended supply chain models that considered contemporary. Section III thoroughly covers designing and implementing solutions, and is, in my opinion, completely on the mark in all respects. The chapter on testing is the best I have ever read - even in books devoted to testing. I had always been frustrated by the ambiguous use of the term "test cycle". The description and approach provided in this book clarified the concept and provided a clear roadmap for a sensible testing process. The final section covers special topics and does so in a thought-provoking manner. Each relatively short chapter compressed a lot of relevant information on the chapter's topic. It was akin to attending focused seminars on security, knowledge management and the other topics covered. This book is a desk reference, consultant's life saver and solid description of an architecture. It can easily serve as the specification document for an IT reengineering project and is nothing short of amazing for its completeness and thoroughness.

    5 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, complete and invaluable.......2001-02-05

    This book is an A to Z compendium of how to design, build, deploy and maintain enterprise-wide architectures. As such it is one of those rare books that should be in every architect's and consultant's short list of resources.

    The book is divided into four sections. The first two sections lay the groundwork by providing an overview of network-centric computing solutions, then providing the foundation in the form of architectural frameworks. Section two, in particular, is valuable because the frameworks address both application delivery (development)and service delivery factors that need to be taken into account. I like this holistic approach because production support requirements are addressed early on - something that is lacking from many such books.

    Section three covers the design and implementation of an architecture in great detail, with a lot of emphasis on testing, release strategy and infrastructure requirements. Section four is devoted to special topics, such as security, knowledge management and collaborative computing, and data mining. Some highlights of this section include information delivery and "componentware". What I liked most about this section was the in-depth treatment of managing costs of a production client/server environment.

    This book has reinforced some of my previous ideas and experience, and has opened my eyes to factors that I had not carefully considered on past projects that involved application or service delivery. I like the coherent and comprehensive approach taken in this book for all aspects of enterprise architectures, and applaud the authors for addressing the hard part: production support of solutions. This book will travel with me to every engagement and will be the first general purpose reference to which I will turn for ideas and methods. If you are a consultant or practitioner in architecture, applications delivery or service delivery this book will be a valuable addition to your library and bag of tricks.

          Managing the Web-Based Enterprise is for managers who are embarking on launching a Web strategy, or getting a solid handle on one that already is in place. Although its focus is on the big-picture issues, the book includes numerous specific suggestions and warnings to steer business professionals who have yet to find their Web legs.

          Managing the Web-Based Enterprise begins with very general discussions, such as "What Is a Web-Based Enterprise" and "How People Use Computers and the Web." These sections help the reader take a look at the whole medium from an analytical point of view.

          Most of the content is presented in series of suggestions, terminology coverage, and tips, with two or three paragraphs of explanation. This format lends itself to readers who are used to analyzing information systematically--or have little time to read computer books. Brief "Why This Matters" sections in most of the chapters break the issues down to executive summaries.

          Readers who are somewhat familiar with Web technology might find this title a bit underwhelming in terms of technical content. However, those who are new to the world of Web-centric business will find that this book frames the issues of the complete Web life cycle quite well. --Stephen W. Plain

          Book Description

          Readers can choose from among many books that guide them through the technology on which e-commerce relies, but virtually none address the subject from a sound business perspective. Managing the Web-Based Enterprise fills this sizable void, offering managers key insights into the nature and future of commerce on the Web. By demonstrating how technology can contribute to success or failure, this book trains readers to make good decisions about technological investment. More importantly, it re-emphasizes the business principles-both traditional and not so traditional-that must be brought to bear on any Web-based project, whatever the technology involved.
          Though addressed primarily to managers, Managing the Web-Based Enterprise will also equip Webmasters and Web application developers with the business sense they need to maximize the value of their contributions.

          Key Features
          * Provides a managerial roadmap to site design and maintenance
          * Unique in the depth of detail included on the business side of Web site development
          * Webmasters will learn what the issues confronting their managers are, and how to resolve them
          * Managers will learn what matters - and what doesn't - in Web site design

          Despite all the gloomy news about e-business, our company is jumping in and this book made it so much easier. We tried to get help from a consultant who cost us many times the cost of this book and was of practically no use at all - talked over our heads most of the time and was not able to say anything clearly even when it was perfectly simple. Skip the "experts" and try this book.

          1 out of 5 stars Not for Managers, Not for Enterprises.......2000-11-28

          I have never been more disappointed with a book purchase. I have been a Web project manager since they were just "Web pages" and have grown with the profession to becoming a Web-based "enterprise" manager. Based on the book summary in this and other venues, including its own cover, this book promised to provide an encapsulation of the process and techniques that would help streamline my own processes and enhance my professional library. This could not have been more misguided.

          The author used very few specific, real-world Web project examples, and when these were invoked, they almost always referred back to the author's company's own Web site. It would be impressive or at least appropriate had the example Web site been an "enterprise" system of applications, functionality, backend integration, usability and design; however, it was a simple site with HTML pages, which, though the book purports they are dynamically rendered from a database, may as well have been static for the flatness of the content --not customized, not personalized, not data-driven. More sincere would have been to describe the site content as contextual, but certainly not dynamic.

          The word "enterprise," although overused these days, has at least kept its generic meaning of some sort of intense undertaking, or a comprehensive, integrated endeavor. So placing the word in the title of the book implies that the content will reflect that same or similar thread. I am appalled that instead, I was treated to oversimplified arguments using non-industry-standard language; the endorsement of entry-level development tools like Front Page and PageMill; less attention paid to content than to hit counters (which have no place on an Enterprise Web system); and pedantic discourses on, of all things, hyperlinks. If a reader needs to be taught that hyperlinks will generally have a different color and be underlined, and that clicking on one will load the page into your browser, replacing the page you're currently viewing, then the reader is not an enterprise-level manager, but is rather your neighbor selling beanie babies on AOL.

          Furthermore, the writer is a frames apologist, which raised instant and vivid red flags on my amateur detector. The author acknowledges that there are reasons not to use them, but he pushes for them anyway; he does not say that the reasons are, namely, proven unreliability in search engines, difficulty in printing, and poor usability in terms of bookmarking, nor that frames have been considered "cheats" to creating good, simple, clean, professional code. He mistakenly asserts that download speeds are faster with frames than using single pages, though an expert knows that navigation buttons and other images are cached and reload quickly. He does not pass along for the reader's benefit the idea that though they remain supported by browsers, frames have been widely dismissed in the professional Web development world.

          This review may beg the question of why I bought a book like this if I considered myself such an "expert." I maintain an office library for my clients, who often require solid documentation to support decisions that I as a manager, my designers, or my developers may make. It goes without question that when I can point to not my own but a published "expert's" educated recommendations, along with a high-profile, professional Web site to corroborate, the confidence factor for the whole project increases. (In that light, may I recommend Collaborative Web Development by Jessica Burdman, and Creating Killer Interactive Web Sites -- not the similarly titled David Siegel one, but the one by Andrew Sather, Ardith Ibanez, and Stefan Grunspan, who excelled at producing real enterprise sites before they were called that.) These types of books are absolutely valuable to beginners and experts alike.

          I don't question that this book could be helpful to a newbie: there are practical guidelines to steer the poor marketing guy thrown into creating a Web page through the morass of questions and confusion and political messes in corporate settings. I think that the inexperienced person who seems to be the target for this book would be a lamb led to slaughter if the project truly were an "enterprise" system. And for the person even barely experienced enough to run an enterprise Web project, this book is not only underwhelming, but it's also misleading, elementary, and poorly supported by professional examples, all of which make it inappropriate to its cover copy, target audience, and cost.

          5 out of 5 stars Give A Copy to Every Manager..........2000-08-30

          Jesse Feiler has done it again. I have read two of his prior books and was again impressed by his clarity and his special knack for formatting and presenting information - he makes it easy to understand and to apply. Having played a role in a major site launch, I wanted to fill in the holes in my knowledge in preparation for the next go round. Jesse covers all the bases. Although the book is superb for executives approaching this responsibility for the first time, it's also a valuable reference for the already initiated. Best suggestion: give copies to all of the key people in your organization - it will make them more comfortable and enhance their contribution.

          5 out of 5 stars The Next Best Thing To An On-Staff Consultant.......2000-08-24

          Having Feiler's book "Managing the Web-Based Enterprise" by your side as you contemplate or stage a Web-based launch is the next best thing to an on-staff expert. Feiler doesn't just tell you what to do. He tells you why - the pros and cons- when - carefully sequencing each stage - and how - in detail. It's the most comprehensive, logical and user-friendly book on managing the process I've read. Other books focus on parts of the process. This one brings them all together.

            Book Description

            Financial Service Providers are essentially information-based businesses: their primary asset is the information they store and share. These companies are struggling today with finding the most flexible and cost-effective means to integrate and aggregate information from a wide range of unstructured and semi-structured enterprise data sources. Today's integration solutions are either targeted only at structured sources of information such as databases, or are too rigid and expensive to handle enterprise information integration and aggregation needs. Furthermore, the unique requirements of Financial Services firms for real-time, scalable access to disparate information has not been successfully met by today's vendors.

            This paper presents a solution in the form of a mid-tier information aggregation server that provides an XML-based operational data store as a way of providing aggregated access to multiple data sources. Raining Data's TigerLogic XDMS is used as a strong example of an XML operational data server that provides a way to store and aggregate semi-structured and structured data from a wide variety of sources, XML-enables access to aggregated information and does not require the user to know the structure of data in advance or make any modifications, mapping, or transformations to those data.

            Targeted at line-of-business users, corporate architects, as well as IT managers at Financial Services firms, this paper helps readers find a better way to integrate and aggregate disparate systems in the enterprise while lowering costs and off-loading performance from back-end operational servers. Readers will gain a critical understanding of how XML operational data stores can be used in the mid-tier to aggregate data from the heterogeneous sources in the Financial Services enterprise.
