Silverlight N-Tier Architecture
I've been beginning to try to find out how a good architecture will work using silverlight 2.0. I've read that Silverlight 2.0 could possible offer a 6 tier design. However, having a bll in your silverlight app could possibly be exposed by anyone decompiling dlls in the client bin. Is this true?
I've also thought about how Business Objects will work in an app when they would (for the most part) be built, then serialized to be passed through a webservice. Perhaps i'm looking waaaayy to deep into it. Perhaps a simple client/server model will be best for a silverlight app? DAL connected directed Silverlight through a webservice?
Astoria (ADO.net data services) could possibly be the answer in the near future? I'm assuming there's a lot of security configuration that needs to take place to utilize astoria and keep people from viewing data that doesn't belong to them as a user. I'm starting to wonder if i'm completely way off base with this architecture thing. Maybe someone will provide a simple n-tier architecture design plan for Silverlight 2.0 apps.
