Microsoft Windows DNA:
Leveraging Investments

Windows DNA is an architectural framework for building modern, scalable, multi-tier distributed computing solutions that can be delivered over any network. The strategy behind Windows DNA is to offer a unified approach for integrating the Web, client/server and host computing models. The benefits are flexibility and speed in delivering Internet solutions based on existing PC & mainframe computing investments.

The architecture addresses all tiers in a distributed application, from user interface and navigation, to business processes and data storage. With Windows DNA, developers have a framework to build tightly integrated applications by accessing a set of application services in the Windows platform, using a wide set of familiar tools. These services are exposed in a unified manner through Component Object Model (COM). By taking advantage of modern component-based development methods and standard implementations of networked services, developers can more rapidly deliver the innovative solutions their businesses need.
