You can download the bits and get some great samples in the MSDN development center . AppFabric is the combination of the distributed caching features previously codenamed “Velocity” and the composite application management features previously codenamed...

This morning I found myself in need of the SQL Server management studio on a new box I built a few months ago. So far, I’ve only installed Visual Studio 2010 RC and the SQL Server 2008 Express that came with it. I was first directed to use the Web...
-
For some time now, I’ve been working with BizTalk Server 2009. One of the major frustrations has been with the VS 2008 integration. Project references between BizTalk projects wreaked havoc if you were working on a single developer machine...

I had a great time presenting at the TC Cloud Computing User group about a week ago. The group is still kind of small, but growing rapidly and pulling together good content as well as hands-on opportunities for people to get going on cloud technologies...
-
Not that I’m surprised by this move; I mean, who would expect Amazon to sit on their laurels and let Microsoft claim the masses of .NET developers. One of my main complaints with AWS has been the lack of tooling for consuming the services. Having...

I’m not surprised at all about this announcement from Doug Purdy about the changes coming to the “Oslo” tools. Ever since the Connected Systems group was “merged” with the data group, it seemed a foregone conclusion that the modeling work would...

A little late on this post, but my excuse is that I’ve been traveling pretty much since I left HDC. I had a great time at the show this year as Pluralsight was able to have a significant presence with our marketing team ( Meagon ) and three speakers...
-
I found this post on the BizTalk Customer Response team blog about the problems people are having with the BizTalk project system integrated into Visual Studio 2008. Apparently, the team built very closely on the C# project type, but that integration...

A couple of weeks ago, I sat down with Jeff Brand to do a podcast on the .NET Service Bus and Cloud Computing in general. We had a fun conversation about the cloud and why it is such a big deal, then dove into more detailed conversation about the...

We’ve recently added a short course on “Dublin” to our subscription-based on demand library . This is very much an early adopter course using very early bits released last year at the PDC. The intention is not to provide detailed information...
-
I’m happy to announce that the WF 4 whitepaper I wrote this spring has been published on MSDN and is ready for viewing. This was a fun paper to write digging into the new bits for WF coming in the framework. I’m very excited about the new...
-
I’m happy to announce that we have two new BizTalk 2009 courses available for instructor led training: BizTalk Server 2009 Fundamentals and SOA and BPM Fundamentals with BizTalk 2009 . The BizTalk Server 2009 Fundamentals class is for .NET developers...

First, this post is not about any automated tools for mapping your activities, so don’t get too excited. :) Instead, I wanted to take the opportunity to talk about the changes to the base activity library in the context of the activities available...
-
I had a great time at Dev Days doing the pre-conference session on WF, WCF and Dublin. It’s always fun trying to present on beta technology, and there’s nothing like having the first demo crash Visual Studio to start the day. :) Thanks to...
-
Thanks to all who attended my talk on migrating from WF 3.x to WF 4 at Dev Days . I’ve posted my slides and demos which you can download for review. Thanks for a great show, and look for me to post some screencasts of several examples in the...
