Abstract:
How SharePoint 2010 Business Connectivity Services could change your life - The New BDC
How many hours have your wasted building simple ASP.NET applications to do nothing more than simple CRUD operations against a database. Many tools have made this easier, but now it's so easy, you'll be up and running in minutes. This session will show you hot easy it is to get started integrating external data from your line of business systems in SharePoint 2010. You will learn how to register an external content type using SharePoint Designer based upon a database table or web service and then build an external list. With external lists, you will see how you can perform CRUD operations on your line of business directly from SharePoint without ever having to do manual configuration in XML files. Finally, we will walk through how to create custom edit forms for your list using InfoPath 2010.
