WCF 35 Deep Dive - Workshop on 28th and 29th August 2008

Training Provided by Colossal Technologies This workshop is designed to provide participants with concepts, techniques and lessons from experience that will help them be more successful. The training starts by explaining the motivation for service-orientation, and then continues to discuss in depth how to develop service-oriented applications using WCF. You will see how to take advantage of built-in features such as service hosting, instance management, asynchronous calls, synchronization, reliability, transaction management, disconnected queued calls and security. You will learn not only WCF programming, but also relevant design guidelines, best practices, and pitfalls. The objective of the training is not to just make you a WCF expert, but also a better software engineer. Target Audience Any .NET developer or architect would benefit greatly from the WCF training. Course Coverage a Understand the motivation and architecture behind WCF Create clients and services with WCF a Expose your services using SOAP and HTTP resources a Choose between different channels, bindings, and configuration options a Host a service as a Windows service or in IIS/ WAS a Deal with concurrency and sessions in WCF a Handle errors in services a Authenticate and authorize access to services a Add reliability using transport and message mechanisms Course Coverage This is a two-days intense course for developers and application architects.
