Abstract
Don’t try to choose between J2EE and .NET, use them both! Just use a unifying architecture that recognizes the strengths and weaknesses of each platform. We propose a new model for enterprise systems called the Software Fortress Model. The Software Fortress Model treats enterprise systems as a series of self contained, mutually suspicious, marginally cooperating software fortresses (perfect for J2EE and .NET!). Each fortress makes its own choices as to software platform and data storage mechanisms and interacts with other fortresses through carefully crafted treaties. This helps enterprises focus on the critical issues of security and platform interoperability.
