Register for WCF - Architecting the Global Enterprise in Edina, MN on
Eventbrite
Nazmul will cover WCF in detail, here’s the abstract of his
presentation:
Abstract: Service Oriented Architecture is the next inevitable
software paradigm for the simple reasons of feasibility, scalability,
cost effectiveness and higher efficiency. It’s pushing our current
understanding of encapsulation, abstraction and distributed
communication to applicable limits, one autonomous service at a time,
in a connected world where data must be converted to usable
information and applied at a pace increasingly more expensive and
otherwise less feasible with human intervention. Tiers of
geographical, political, enterprise, hardware, and software boundaries
must be made to coordinate and interoperate in an ever more technical
world. Just as it is currently practically impossible to write
complex software systems using procedural techniques, even within an
enterprise, similar problems with multiplicative effect persist while
crossing boundaries, corporate or otherwise.
Windows Communication Foundation, WCF, is Microsoft’s attempt at
offering a comprehensive framework toward SOA. In this session we’ll
begin with a discussion of key SOA concepts and narrow our focus to
specific implementation techniques using WCF, including but not
limited to the following sub-topics:

* Service development
* Service hosting
* Consuming service
* End to end communication
* Communication security

Presentation material, references, and sample code will be made
available.
