Building Solutions with Microsoft® Commerce Server 2002 Clayton C. Peddy PDF

This book highlights the features of Microsoft Commerce Server 2002 and demonstrates through example how to leverage these features to build a high-impact, high-performance commerce site. What questions need to be answered before you can design a Web site for commerce? What are the typical functional areas of a commerce site, and what features are found in each? How do you develop them? This book answers these key questions and more by showing how to use the features of Microsoft® Commerce Server 2002 to build a comprehensive, secure e-commerce solution. While its primary focus is Commerce Server 2002, this book also includes details about integration with Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 and Microsoft Application Center. Written by two authors who have extensive first-hand experience with e-commerce sites of all sizes, the book demonstrates by example how to define site requirements and necessary functionality, plus how to take advantage of Microsoft ASP.NET technology for high performance and code reuse. It also includes detailed information about how to integrate with existing or new data and e-mail systems, how to build a workable administrative interface, and how to deploy a solution with a minimum of effort. It even includes a working sample site on a companion CD-ROM.
