Tomorrow Joe Klug will be presenting a session about Microsoft’s Real World SOA vision at the Microsoft’s offices in Downers Grove, IL. As part of the session Joe will present a version of a demo we built last year as an example of how to use Microsoft Office SharePoint Server and windows Communication Foudantion to build composite applications on the Microsoft platform. If you are in the Chicago area and you are interested on how to combine Microsoft technologies to achieve Service Orientation you should swing by Joe’s session.
For the last few years the Liberty Alliance project has published a lot best practices and specifications around identity solutions. Specifically, the Liberty Alliance has had a deep impact on Service Oriented Identity Federation solutions as a complement to well established Standards such as WS-Federation. Even more importantly, the practices and Standards promoted by the  Liberty Alliance have served as the foundation for some of the most complex SO Identity Federation solutions in the world. This week, the Liberty Alliance has acknowledged some of those solutions with the IDDY awards. Check out the list of implementers, you will be impressed…

 

Tomorrow my good friend and colleague Joe Klug will be presenting a MSDN WebCast about integrating WCF and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS). Joe has prepared a cool set of demos that explore how to integrate WCF services and adapters with MOSS technologies such as Business Data Catalog or SharePoint Workflows.

If you are working on MOSS WCF projects this is definitely a MUST SEE WebCast.  

Thanks to everyone who attended to my MSDN WebCast about WCF extensibility and special thanks for the great feedback. The recording is now available on MSDN and you can download the samples here.

I think this has been promoted enough but, in case you haven’t seen it, this Friday I will be presenting my second WebCast as part of the .NET 3.5 influencer’s series.

This time I am going to be talking about WCF extensibility. My goal is to cover as many WCF extensibility points as possible and show a LOT OF CODE that details how to create those components :).  I’ve prepared a set of demos that illustrates more than 20 WCF extensibility points that you can leverage as part of your WCF solutions. This session is rated 400 which means that we are going to spend most of the time looking at code :)If you have any suggestions about things you are interested in terms of WCF extensibility please feel free to drop me a line.
