ASP.NET Web-Application Architectures / Patterns

Does anybody knows good, short and slim tutorials, which describe actual/modern web-application architectures / patterns (especially for ASP.NET based (classic and MVC) applications (maybe also with embedded Silverlight components) ? How would you you de开发者_JS百科sign today an ASP.NET application which uses different datasources (databases, services,...) ? Background: I has been away a couple of years writing web applications, and I want to start now again. So at the moment I am a little bit unsure, how to take off and find the right starting point.

If you're interested in MVC I'd suggest starting out with the offical MS tutorials:

http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials

There happens to be an upcoming free online conference on ASP .NET MVC that may interest you: http://mvcconf.com/

Check out Sharp Architecture: http://wiki.sharparchitecture.net

there are some articles that describe how & why it's architected the way it is that might help you with your project.

You can take reference of following -

You have many questions embedded in one :)

1. short and slim tutorials = For getting architectures/patterns explanation is always bit more extensive since original developer/reviewer explains the design decisions or thought process of selection of components used.

2. I would like to recommend P&P's Application Architecture Guide (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff650706.aspx) for reference architectures.

3. Real World Coding Examples: There are lot many on GitHub. It really depends on the type of app you are taken for development and business domain. Some pointers: http://www.asp.net/web-forms/samples, NopCommerce,http://www.magelia.org/,www.teamlab.com etc. There is lot of good codebase which is working and available on GitHub etc.

PS: Start with www.asp.net Best resource!

Hope this helps.
