Common Characteristics of Enterprise Applications

Last week, I was conducting a tech talk about “Architectural Patterns of Enterprise Applications” with our team. The discussion was mainly based on Marin Fowler's famous book “Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture”. So, I thought, it's good to write something about that in my Blog. Given below are few common characteristics of Enterprise Applications. If any software product has the following characteristics, we can identify it as an Enterprise Application. These ware originally documented by “Martin Fowler”, in his book “Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture”. Persistent Data - Enterprise applications usually involve persistent data. The data is persistent because it needs to be around between multiple runs of the program—indeed, it usually needs to persist for several years. Also during this time there will be many changes in the programs that use it. Lot of Data - There's usually a lot of data, a moderate system will have over 1 GB of data organ

How to avoid those little issues one can get when creating new projects with Zend Framwork...

CSS styles my not apply to the templates : Some times this happens when you haven't created a virtual host for the application. After the virtual host is created styles will apply properly, or just use some url helper like "baseUrl" when linking the style sheets to the templates.

How to create a waveform animation with HTML and JavaScript

Recently, for a pet project, I wanted to create an animation of a waveform based on the varying decibel level of the microphone input. I was thinking about a really simple way to accomplish this with SVG and JavaScript. Given below is the first sample code I did on the Codepen. You can change this code to use with any framework of your choice. For this sample code, I am using a random number as the microphone input. You can replace it with any other time based input. Code Pen : https://codepen.io/nadeeth/pen/vmaYXw For this example, you need an HTML code snippet like the one given below. It’s just an SVG with a Polyline element inside.  <div style="text-align:center">   <svg height="150" width="400" id='svg'>     <polyline id="polyline-id" fill="none" stroke="#005c66" stroke-width="1" />   </svg> </div> And then the plain Javascript code to animate the polyline. You can
