PHP – Internal APIs/Libraries – What makes sense?

I’ve been having a discussion lately with some colleagues about the best way to approach a new project, and thought it’d be interesting to get some external thoughts thrown into the mix.

Why all classes in .NET globally inherits from Object class?

Its very interesting for me which advantages gives “global root class” approach for framework.
In simple words what reasons resulted the .NET framework was designed to have one root object class with general functionality suitable for all classes.

Data architecture for event log metrics?

My service has a large ongoing number of user events, and we would like to do things like “count occurrence of event type T since date D.”

How to port this architecture to .net?

My team is currently locked into using a tool we dislike that takes the form of a Eclipse plugin and a .jar; the plugin gives us a button to quickly run a single file’s code (via invoking the main .jar and passing to it the current file). We want to move to C#.net. Is there any way to get Visual Studio to replicate this behavior? Obviously we could put each runnable class into its own project in our solution, but that requires checking a lot of project files into source control. Ideally we’d have a main() method in each file and could tell visual studio to run just that file for development purposes, while the finished software would be run from a single entry point using command-line parameters.

General Architecture with Code Tables?

I’ve only worked at once place since graduating my CS degree. This is a pretty basic architecture question but i don’t know any better since i’ve only worked at one place. Where i work we maintain a large number of code tables. For example say you have a Sales/Order system and you have an Order Status. We would maintain an order status table that would look like the following:

Auto update for application hosted on multiple servers on cloud

I’m working on an application which will run on multiple Amazon EC2 instances. I wish to incorporate auto update feature for my application. The updater should update all the Ec2 instances. Also, there is a central server which governs the creation/termination of EC2 instances as per load. The central server creates a EC2 new instance from a pre-configured custom AMI (custom image which has our application pre-installed).

What are good practices to perform software based optimization?

On a project that I am working on we encountered some performance problems.

Good principles to explain the use of data objects

I’m in a little need of names clarification. First a brief description of my position. I prepare as debutant giving a junior developer job descriptions, which also provided another perspective on how important communication is, and to put it beyond doubt.

Pros and cons of intrusive and non-intrusive serialization?

I am interesting in the pros and cons of serialization: intrusive and non-intrusive.
