We are happy to announce the latest addition to Tellago Studios’ product family: TeleSharp. After the success of SO-Aware and the SO-Aware Test Workbench, we decided to tackle on a bigger challenge by taking the initial steps towards simplifying enterprise .NET application development. After months of discussion with customers we decided to focus on the following challenges:

Cataloging Applications

What if you could keep a central catalog of the .NET applications exist on your enterprise? What if you could know the assemblies, services, databases that are part of those applications and how are they are configured and deployed?

Managing .NET Configuration

What if you could you centralize the configuration files used by your different applications? What if you could reuse configuration sections across different applications? What about keeping multiple versions of configuration files and sections? Securing configuration sections?

Another month and another time for our Tellago Technology Updates webinar!!

Next Tuesday, my friend and Tellago’s mobility practice lead Chris Love will be speaking about IOs and Android development from a .NET developer perspective. The session will explore the opportunities, challenges and techniques for embracing these new mobiles development platforms while still leverage your investments in .NET technologies, infrastructure and developer skill-sets.

If you are a .NET developer, IT manager or executive interested on adopting Android or IOs technologies you should attend this session. Chris is a fantastic speaker and he promises to keep it fun. You can register for the webinar here.

Tellago Technology Updates is a monthly series of webinars on which our technical staff shares their experiences on new and emerging technologies with our customers and partners. We try to focus on technologies that are really changing the world and influencing the way we build applications nowadays. Last month, our Technology Update covered the exciting field of NOSQL databases from a .NET developer perspective. Here is the slide deck.

Next week, Tellago’s mobility practice lead Chris Love will be talking about Android and IOs development also from a .NET developer perspective. You can register for that webinar here.

Since the launch of SO-Aware, we’ve been pleasantly surprised by the number of times other Microsoft partners in the middleware & integration space have positioned our product together with the rest of Microsoft’s Service Oriented (SO) technology stack when responding to competitive engagements against traditional J2EEvendors such as Oracle, IBM, SoftwareAG or Tibco. Our surprised is not based on any technical reasons (we built SO-Aware to fill the SOA governance gap in the Microsoft stack) but rather on how quickly Microsoft, partners and enterprise customers have embraced SO-Aware as a natural complement to the Microsoft integration and middleware technology stack.

I know, I know….It’s been almost 2 weeks since Teched and I still haven’t posted the slide decks of my sessions :( I’ve been super busy with some exciting development on both Tellago and Tellago Studios but I finally got to it :) 

WCF Best Practices

My session about WCF best practices focused on highlighting patterns and techniques for implementing real world enterprise WCF solutions. You can find the recording of that session here http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/TechEd/NorthAmerica/2011/MID402.

Real World WF

This session showcase some fun real world scenarios implemented using Windows Workflow Foundation (WF). I actually got the idea for some of the demos by talking to some of our customers who are currently using WF. I tried to cover the benefits of using WF from different IT perspectives such as business analysts, developers, testers, ITPros, etc.

I have to thank my friend Pablo Cibraro for all his help putting together the demos for these sessions.
