Thanks to Richard Seroter I stumbled on the Service Architecture Pocket Guide, which provides an overview and prescriptive guidance for designing services on the .NET platform. The guide contains the following chapters and resources: • Chapter 1, "Service Architecture," provides general design guidelines for a service application, explains the key attributes, discusses the use of layers,

BizTalk Server and "Oslo" and .NET
Posted on 01:02 by Unknown
In light of the announced and presented project OSLO, Microsoft’s modeling platform, during last PDC makes it interesting how it will relate to BizTalk. The reason I think it is interesting is, because of OSLO architecture (displayed below). If you look at runtimes, than BizTalk could be a runtime for models. At Microsoft’s BizTalk Server website it is stated in the roadmap that: In fact,

A First Look at WF 4.0, Dublin, and Oslo
Posted on 09:41 by Unknown
During PDC I could not attend any session on WF 4.0 or Dublin. I focused more on Azure and OSLO. Having just blogged about David Chappell’s talk today I noticed he has written a whitepaper about WF 4.0, Dublin and OSLO too. These technologies can be used together or independently (see below). I have taken this picture above from the whitepaper. David did a talk during Teched about the
Future is in the cloud

David Chappell did a talk about Windows Azure Services Platform today at Microsoft Innovation Center (MIC) in Barneveld (not according to his schedule). In stead of travelling thousands of miles in a plane to see/hear him talk, I now could step into my car drive a couple of miles (I live in Ede, which is nearby). His talk is centered around Azure Service Platform whitepaper he wrote recently and

WCF Restful Services
Posted on 11:25 by Unknown
Steve Maine did a session about Windows Communication Foundation (WCF)for building Web 2.0-style services that use URIs, HTTP GET, and other data formats beyond XML. See how these features can be applied to AJAX web sites, "REST" applications, and data feeds. Now Jon Flanders has his book released on Safari about Restful .NET. Book description is as follows: RESTful .NET is the first book

BizTalk Deployment
Posted on 06:14 by Unknown
Very recently there is a new version of BizTalk Deployment Framework available through codeplex. It used to be hosted by Scott Colestock. It is 4th release of the framework. I will use it in my High Performance Learning for BizTalk environment (see post part I, post part II, post IIa, post part III, post part IVa). I will continue with this environment any time soon, discussing development, then

BizTalk WCF Whitepapers
Posted on 08:36 by Unknown
In my previous post I talked a little bit about what going to happen with BizTalk. It going to be around a very long time and Microsoft has big investment in it and keeps innovating and supporting it. Latest examples of this are recently new published white papers about BizTalk and WCF: Using the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Adapters in BizTalk Server Consuming and Hosting WCF
What is going to happen with BizTalk
Posted on 08:17 by Unknown
During PDC some BizTalk folks wondered what is going to happen with BizTalk now Dublin is coming. I talked with some Microsoft people from the Netherlands and they say is going to be around for at least a couple of years if not longer. In past Charles Young posted a post around difference between Dublin and BizTalk. This week Aaron Skonnard did a post about OSLO and future of BizTalk. I believe
Modeling with M
Posted on 01:13 by Unknown
This week I posted my lap around OSLO experience and in addition to this today Jon put out a intro into M video of approximately 40 minutes. It shows how to model with SQL tools inside SQL Server 2008 versus modeling in M using IntelliPad. In both cases tables are created, data is added and shown through a simple application made in Visual Studio 2008 using Dynamic Data Entitities Web Application

Views and Opinions about OSLO
Posted on 09:32 by Unknown
I am fairly new to DSL and especially now with OSLO. In my previous post today I did my own lap (experimenting) with OSLO and only scratch the surface. There are some experts in world though around DSL and better understanding of OSLO than me. I am at the beginning of a long and steep learning curve, but I eager enough to accept the challenge to learn and understand it thoroughly. Here are some
My lap around OSLO
Posted on 04:02 by Unknown
Now I am home I can start experimenting with things I heard at the PDC. In my previous post I created a Azure Service; my first one. This time I am going to do my own lap around OSLO. In some post you have already read what OSLO is; if not here’s a brief explanation. OSLO is a platform for model-driven applications. It contains three components: “M” (The language for authoring models & DSLs)

Creating Windows Azure Services
Posted on 07:48 by Unknown
This can be done with October CTP of Windows Azure. You will be needing to install IIS 7.0 and Azure SDK first. Everything in this blog post can be done today as long as you have access to Azure Platform. I will go through developing a service, testing and debugging it locally, deploy it in the cloud and look at analytics. For creating a service you need Visual Studio, .NET, IIS 7 and WCF. When
PDC 2008 Impression
Posted on 02:20 by Unknown
I am back as most of PDC attendees are. It was exciting to be able to attend PDC in LA. I was not to thrilled about downtown LA, but I was in good company and had lots of opportunities to enjoy myself in the evening like Universal Studios, Lakers game at Staple Center and some local bars. As for PDC is was just awesome to witness announcement of Azure, seeing OSLO in action, watching session
