I have been real busy, among other things, doing a full review and change cycle on my Asynchronous Messaging and Event-Driven Architecture talk that I am doing tonight. The entire deck has changed. There has been even more strides towards full asynchronous messaging. To that end, I have worked with the CSD folks to truly understand the behavior of the One Way messaging and its implications on blocking/asynchronous behavior. I will present those findings tonight. I will be be taking my Advanced WCF:

I finally put up all the demo code (except Neuron) for the Capital Area .NET UG presentation that I did on 6/24. So: Code here Presentation here Questions, ask Technorati Tags: INETA , EDA , Event Driven Architecture , SOA , Service Oriented Architecture , WCF

Welcome to the 11th article in the series. In this article, I will take a broad detour from the abstract into the concrete with WCF. The title of this article is "Introduction to WCF: Architecture and the "ABCs" of Indigo." BTW, I have been in the Indigo SDR program for over 4 years and the term Indigo has stuck in my mind, so I will use the terms interchangeably. Plus, as I think Don Box said in a presentation, It's spelled W-C-F and pronounced Indigo. The WCF is silent."

This is 9th of a series. I haven’t really received much feedback. Please let me know if this is useful, if posts too long, too abstract, your thoughts. Symptoms of a Problem, Diagnosis and Why SOA? Dynamic IT to Support the Agile Business and Business Benefits of SOA What is Service Orientation? What is SOA? The Many Definitions, a Working Definition, the Four Tenets What is a Service?

I have posted the Slides and the Source Code for the 3/17/2008 Lehigh Valley .NET presentation on Advanced WCF - Asynchronous Messaging and EDA. The code is all VS2008/.NET 3.5. The last demo with Neuron does NOT include the ESB.dll but the code is all there to indicate how many lines of code needed to implement Pub/Sub (3) vs. all the WCF code in the List Based Pub Sub sample for WCF (lots).

I mentioned that I had been doing a bit of Neuron development with Marty Wasznicky and David Pallmann . Hey, my blog is even listed up there :) I also have been using Neuron in three different customer engagements and it has provided a lot of value to my customers. We just put up a dedicated site  http://www.neuronesb.com . There is a lot of good stuff now and we are also going to put more of a community effort going forward. It now has: Product information Vertical solutions News White papers
