November 10, 2009 at 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Project Code Named “Dublin” extends the hosting capabilities of the .NET 4 runtime for WCF and WF services and delivers rich monitoring, configuration and control for WAS activated services.
This session will focus on what developers need to know about “Dublin” to build easy to deploy, configure, monitor and troubleshoot middle-tier services and to unlock the rich extensibility capabilities “Dublin” provides.
The session will cover the following topics:
(1) An overview of “Dublin”
a. “Dublin” service hosting extensions for .NET 4 – the role of the workflow management service, “Dublin” federated instance control capabilities, service autostart to reduce latency on first activation
b. Monitoring and troubleshooting .NET 4 WCF and WF services – a consolidated ETW based event model, open and extensible monitoring database
c. Deployment and configuration of .NET 4 WCF and WF services –service deployment with configuring services to work with “Dublin”
d. “Dublin” tooling –PowerShell based scripting layer, InetMgr plugin that provides an at-a-glance dashboard for service health, rich event querying capabilities, and supports most service related administrative tasks
(2) How to get the most out of “Dublin” extensibility
a. Durable services extensibility
b. Monitoring extensibility
c. Tooling extensibility
