The development of enterprise applications has benefited from the emergence of many new technologies.  For example, Java and . NET platforms are now commonplace tools for building powerful applications.  Enterprise-application developers can benefit from these tools, but must also understand design lessons that experienced object developers have learned over time.  Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture is written in direct response to the stiff challenges that face today's enterprise-application developers.  The author, noted object-oriented designer Martin Fowler, noticed that despite changes in technology—from Small talk to CORBA to Java to . NET—the same design ideas can be adapted and applied to solve common problems.

As the popularity of object-oriented programming has grown, the software development community has increasingly faced new problems.  Many recent software applications have been developed by less-experienced programmers, resulting in inefficient and difficult-to-maintain programs.  Many software professionals have found that it is difficult to work with existing application programs because they have been poorly designed.  In response, expert object programmers have been using a growing collection of techniques to improve their performance while working with existing applications.  These refinements—known as refactoring—have remained in the domain of experts because no attempt has been made to transcribe this knowledge into a form that all programmers could use…until now.
