> “Forms over data” E2E business app> Prescriptive model for CRUD services> Great tooling to maximize productivity> E2E data: sorting, paging, filtering,
validation…> RIA Services now built on top of WCF
> Productivity of RIA Services> Power and flexibility of WCF

Accessing Public REST ServicesSystem.Net
> ClientHttp networking stack> Integrated with the OS networking stack> Supports common BrowserHttp stack
features for consistent experience> Better RESTful protocol support for
same and cross-domain scenarios> All HTTP verbs supported> Response bodies available for all HTTP
status codes> Authentication & cookies support
ClientHttp Stack FeaturesBrowserHttp Stack

demo Accessing Public REST Services
Access a Data Model Using RESTSystem.Data.Services
> WCF Data Services> Formerly ADO.NET Data Services> Services with a RESTful interface and a
set of conventions designed for easy data sharing
> What is Data Services?> Server framework for .NET, others coming > Clients for Silverlight, .NET, PHP, Java,
AJAX> SharePoint 2010 uses a Data Service to
expose data
Data Services Client
> Accessing Data Services> Silverlight ClientHttp stack still an option> Data Services client more usable as it
knows the details of the data service interface
> Features> Full abstraction on top of the service – no
need to deal with HTTP, serialization, etc> Data as objects with automatic change
tracking> LINQ for queries> Data-binding friendly interfaces> Work same-domain and cross-domain

WCF Features
> Faults enabled> System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException
was unhandled by user codeMessage="The remote server returned an error: NotFound."
> To get full exceptions, use ClientHttp stack
> Security in cross-domain scenarios enabled> Normally use browser-managed security
(generally not safe for cross-domain use)> Transport security with message
credentials in cross-domain scenarios
Duplex Messaging (Server Push)
> Server push is compelling when server has to notify client of events (email server)> Internet: PollingDuplex (HTTP-based)
> [Post SL4 Beta] response chunking for better performance
> [Post SL4 Beta] can scale across machines (web farms, Windows Azure) – Invensys case study
> Intranet: NetTcp (TCP sockets-based)> Also works for request/reply services
> Both offer the same programming model – just a matter of changing the binding

Multicast MessagingSystem.Net
> UDP multicast is a technique for one-to-many communication over an IP infrastructure
> Scenarios> Market data streaming> Video and media streaming> Real-time communication> Device and service discovery
UDP Multicast Details
> Scales to a large receiver population> Two key shapes for multicast groups:
> Single Source Multicast (one-to-many)System.Net.Sockets.UdpSingleSourceMulticastClient
> Any Source Multicast (many-to-many)System.Net.Sockets.UdpAnySourceMulticastClient
> Need to expose a policy responder (just like sockets and HTTP)> [Post SL4 Beta] Going away for both
sockets and multicast if app is elevated
