saArchitect Community Event: WCF #1
We completed the first community event, focused on Windows Community Foundation (WCF), where we discussed the early adoption findings and created a prototype covering the following features:
• Hosting of services
• One way calls
• Duplex calls
• Transactions
• Session management
• Reliable messaging
The next saA community event on 2006/07/08 will introduce VSTS/TFS and on 2006/07/29 we will again look at WCF, this time looking at BizTalk and WCF, as well as InfoCard.
We are also looking forward to the release of our second book, which includes a “WCF In Easy Steps” chapter. As was the case today, these sessions are not based on step-step labs, nor are they training courses ... they are workshops during which we want to explore the technologies as a team.
Thanks to everyone from the community who attended today, for IT Intellect sponsoring the facilities, Derek for the wealth of snacks he brought along to the event and BB&D/MTU members for preparing and hosting these sessions for the community.
