Summary: A MUST for every network programmer
Comment: This long awaited book keeps its promises. It takes you on a fascinating journey through the world of network programming. If you are using ACE, then this book provides you with everything you need to know to understand its general philosopy, its fundamental concepts -- the ACE wrapper facades --, as well as how to use the classes and frameworks that it provides. Even if you are an ACE expert, this book will likely give you some new insights for using ACE more effectively.
Even for programmers who are not using C++, this book is of great value. The exploration of the design dimensions of network programming gives you a complete and sound overview about all challenges that can arise in that domain. If you want to understand more than low-level APIs, here you find the information you are seeking for.

Summary: Great book on concurrent network programming
Comment: Doug and Stephen did a great job writing this book (I only wish it came out earlier ;-). Everything is clearly explained, from analysis, to design patterns, to low-level implementation details with copious, well-written code examples. Even tho I've used ACE for several years now, I still learned many new things from reading this book, and it will continue to be a great reference. I particularly liked their explanation of trade-offs between various server concurrency stategies (eg: iterative, process-per-connection, thread-per-connection, etc), and ACE's design principles (appendix A).

Summary: Excellent reading for any network programmer
Comment: This is an excellent reading for any network programmer. More than ACE itself the concepts covered are of a great value. I am a beginner to intermediate network programmer, but an experienced programmer otherwise, and found this to be an extremely valuable resource in terms tackling large application frameworks from the ground up. The concepts are precise upto the point but extremely easy to read and digest. Of course, the book is assuming that you know quite a bit of every thing else that is not covered here. There are quite a bit of things that are totally missing or not correct based on the OS and the advances in Posix threading. Nevertheless this is an excellent source for any network programmer.
