Kursinnehåll

Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is Microsoft's implementation of set of industry standards defining service interactions. WCF unifies the previous generations of Microsoft’s technologies, offering the interoperability of ASP.NET web services, the extensibility of remoting and the productivity and power of Enterprise Services.
The class 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 advatandge of built-in features such as service hosting, instance management, asynchronous calls, synchronization, reliability, transaction management, disconnected queued calls and security. While the class shows how to use these features, it set the focus on the ‘why’ and the rationale behind particular design decisions, often shedding light on poorly-documented and understood aspects. You will learn not only WCF programming, but also relevant design guidelines, best practices, and pitfalls. The material presented includes IDesign's original techniques and utilities and goes well beyond anything you can find in conventional sources. The objective of the class is not to just make you a WCF expert, but also a better software engineer.
The class concludes with a massive case study exercising the design cycle using WCF, from use cases to design diagrams and a vertical slice of the implementation, as a way of validating the architecture.
On top of the frontal presentations, the class uses lab exercise and numerous conceptual demos and original tools and utilities. Attendees will find the demos useful not only in class but after it. The demos serve as a starting point for new projects, and as a rich reference and samples source.
