Golden rule about Hardcoding replica IDs in database code.

This rule is not as important as Hardcoding names or URLs but is still a good rule of thumb.

Replica IDs should not be hardcoded. Stick them in a keyword document and use Dblookup to find them each time.

Replica IDs should not be used unless the database is replicated over many servers, and you want the user to use their local replica.

Server and path should be used where possible as Notes can find the databases quicker. Tweet

Web Services Platform Architecture: Soap, WSDL, WS-Policy, WS-Addressing, WS-Bpel, WS-Reliable Messaging and More by Francisco Curbera, Frank Leymann, Tony Storey, Donald Ferguson, Sanjiva Weerawarana
Other books claim to present the complete Web services platform architecture, but this is the first one I've seen that really does. The authors have been intimately involved in the creation of the architecture. Who better to write this book?
