Concepts

The Concepts section covers topics about what makes Remoting SDK servers "tick". This section covers more abstract ideas and design strategies such as "Statelessness".

The Technologies section in its turn covers more lower-level topics, such as TLS certificate management or application boilerplate code.

Remoting SDK makes creating servers (and the clients that connect to them) easy, but that does not mean it is trivial. Behind the scenes, Remoting SDK does a lot of work to make your servers accessible to begin with, but also to make them responsive, and scalable.

We recommend that you, at the very least, read up on the following topics.

• Services
• Server Channels, Messages and Message Envelopes
• Statelessness and Session Management
• Event Sinks and Server Callbacks
• Multicast Events
• Smart Services

See Also: Client Concepts

Of course you will also want to explore the Clients section for more information on how to connect to your servers from your client applications (which can be written in more development platforms than just .NET and Delphi, including Cocoa, Java and JavaScript).

The Clients section has a dedicated Client Concepts section that talks about concepts relevant to client development (and some that are shared, such as Messages).
