In this chapter, we will cover definitions of the Business Delegate pattern, the Session Façade pattern, and the business-object pattern. We will show the reasons to use these design patterns, common approaches to each of them, their interaction with other patterns, their evolution, and how they behave in the real world. We will also demonstrate some examples of these patterns' implementations.
At the end of the chapter, you will be able to identify the correct scenarios to apply business patterns and choose the best methods for implementing them. The following topics will be covered:
- Understanding the business tier
