1. Implementing Application Load Balancing and Centralized Configuration Management Respositories for .NET Applications and Services: .NET StockTrader Sample Application Scenario

Configuration Management Service

A re-usable system implemented in shared libraries and based on WCF for
configuration exchanges between services and clustered nodes

With .NET StockTrader, the configuration system is accessed and used simply
by logging into the Web application as the pre-configured userid 'Admin'.
This directs the user to the Configuration Menu, which is a set of ASP.NET
pages that present a way to centrally view, manage and configure the overall
system via the Configuration Service. These pages are generic: they could work
with any application that implements the configuration management service-
they are not necessarily StockTrader-specific.
