Event Overview
Session 1 – jQuery with ASP.NET - JQuery is an open source JavaScript
library that has a passionate following among Ajax developers. Microsoft
is integrating the open source JQuery library into both the ASP.NET Web
Forms and ASP.NET MVC frameworks and providing full product support. Learn
how you can take advantage of JQuery to build richly interactive
client-side Ajax applications when developing either ASP.NET Web Forms or
ASP.NET MVC applications. Also see how JQuery works in combination with
ASP.NET AJAX to provide the best framework for building Ajax applications.
Session 2 – Data Services - OnPremise and Off - In the near future,
applications will be developed using a combination of custom application
code and online building block services, including data-centric services.
In this session we discuss advancements in the Microsoft development
platform and online service interfaces to enable seamless interaction with
data services both on-premises (e.g., ADO.NET Data Services Framework over
on-premises SQL Server) and in the cloud (e.g., SQL Server Data Services).
Learn how you can leverage existing know-how related to LINQ (Language
Integrated Query), data access APIs, data-binding, and more when building
applications using online data.
Session 3 – Architecting for the Cloud using Windows Azure - This session
provides a tour of the Windows Azure cloud computing platform, an overview
of its various components, and explains how these fit together to provide
best-of-cloud experiences. We will explore the architecture that links
many of the Microsoft .NET services and lets ISVs and businesses deliver
compelling solutions. Learn how to compose these services with SQL Data
Services to create applications in the cloud and connect them with
on-premise systems. We will also examine the next generation of messaging,
data, access control, and directory services, and how they fit together to
provide a seamless integration into the cloud.
