It is my honor and privilege to host my friend Michele Leroux-Bustamante at this week’s special combined meeting of the San Diego .NET user group Connected Systems and Architecture SIGs.

If you’re doing anything with WCF (and if you read my blog odds are you must be!) and are in San Diego, then this is a not-to-be-missed event.

See you there!

WCF Made Easy with Microsoft .NET Framework 4
and Windows Server AppFabric

Topic

WCF is a flexible and powerful platform for building service-oriented applications, and  with that flexibility comes some complexity.  As of .NET 4 – configuring, securing, hosting and managing WCF services has never been easier!  WCF 4 and Windows Server AppFabric come together to  help developers and IT administrators overcome the complexity. Come find out how much easier it is to configure WCF services in .NET 4 including alignment with the ASP.NET configuration model and a reduced configuration footprint. Also learn Windows Server AppFabric  features for the IT administrator, finally making it easier for IT administrators to easily access settings they care about such as security and throttling features; providing control over the hosting lifecycle of WCF services; and giving new visibility into faults, exceptions and tracing and diagnostics features to help you manage your service deployments in production un-intrusively.
