Building an Enterprise Data Access Layer: Composable Multi-Tenancy Filtering
In our previous articles, we established a robust foundation for our enterprise Data Access Layer (DAL). We began with a database-first approach using C# and Linq2Db, then implemented automated auditing for CreatedAt and ModifiedAt timestamps. Most recently, we engineered a powerful, composable global query filter system to handle soft-deletes transparently. This architecture was designed for extensibility, and in this post, we will leverage that investment to tackle one of the most critical ...
Building an Enterprise Data Access Layer: Automated Soft-Delete
Welcome to the fourth installment of our series on building a robust, enterprise-grade Data Access Layer (DAL) in C#. In our previous post, we established a powerful automated auditing system to track entity creation and modification times (CreatedAt/ModifiedAt). Now, we will tackle another critical enterprise requirement: soft-delete.
Building an Enterprise Data Access Layer: Automated Auditing
In our previous posts, we laid the foundation for our enterprise Data Access Layer (DAL). We established our core principles: a database-first philosophy, the use of C# and Linq2Db, and a commitment to automating cross-cutting concerns to enhance security and data integrity. We also structured our project, set up a scaffolding interceptor to enrich our auto-generated entities, and chose ULIDs as our primary keys for their performance benefits.
Building an Enterprise Data Access Layer: Database and Code Structure
Welcome back to our series on building a robust, enterprise-grade Data Access Layer (DAL) with C# and Linq2Db. In our previous post, we established the core principles and non-negotiable capabilities our DAL must possess, including automatic multi-tenancy filtering, soft-delete, and auditing. Now, we'll begin laying the foundation for this powerful system by defining the database schema and the initial code structure.
Building an Enterprise Data Access Layer: The Foundation
In enterprise software development, the Data Access Layer (DAL) serves as the critical interface between an application's business logic and its underlying data store. Beyond basic CRUD operations, a robust DAL is fundamental for ensuring data integrity, security, and operational consistency. It proactively addresses cross-cutting concerns, preventing inconsistencies, defects, and potential security vulnerabilities that arise when these responsibilities are left to the business logic.
ByteAether.Ulid v1.3.0: Enhanced ULID Generation Control and Security
ByteAether.Ulid v1.3.0, a significant update to our high-performance .NET ULID implementation, has been released. This version introduces enhanced flexibility and security for ULID generation, reinforcing its suitability for modern applications.
Prioritizing Reliability When Milliseconds Aren't Enough
Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifiers (ULIDs) represent a significant advancement over traditional UUIDs, offering guaranteed uniqueness (within practical limits), natural sortability by time, and a concise, URL-friendly format. These features make them highly suitable for diverse applications, including database keys, distributed tracing, and event identifiers. While the intricacies of ID generation might seem like a deep concern primarily for high-throughput systems, und...
Announcing ByteAether.WeakEvent v1.0.0
We are thrilled to announce the release of ByteAether.WeakEvent v1.0.0, a NuGet library designed to revolutionize event management in .NET. This release marks the culmination of months of development, testing, and community feedback. With a focus on memory safety and ease-of-use, ByteAether.WeakEvent empowers software engineers and architects to build decoupled, maintainable, and high-performance applications without the pitfalls of memory leaks caused by traditional event subscriptions.
