Rewriting WCF OData Services base URL with load balancing & reverse proxy
Nov 1108When scaling out an application to multiple servers, often a form of load balancing or reverse proxying is used to provide external users access to a web server. For example, one can be in the situation where two servers are hosting a WCF OData Service and are exposed to the Internet through either a load balancer or a reverse proxy. Below is a figure of such setup using a reverse proxy. As you can see, the external server listens on the URL www.example.com, while both internal servers are ...

Enabling conditional Basic HTTP authentication on a WCF OData service
Jun 1128Yes, a long title, but also something I was not able to find too easily using Google. Here’s the situation: for MyGet, we are implementing basic authentication to the OData feed serving available NuGet packages. If you recall my post Using dynamic WCF service routes, you may have deducted that MyGet uses that technique to have one WCF OData service serving the feeds of all our users. It’s just convenient! Unless you want basic HTTP authentication for some feeds and not for others… After doin...

Moving containers beyond testability
Sep 1021In Derick Bailey’s two recent posts on containers, I found a lot of déjà vu in his sentiments. In fact, it’s quite similar to the issues that I was running into a while back, trying to move beyond top-down design. I had become a little disenchanted with my container usage.
