Developing Applications Using Data Services
Engage early in learning how to develop applications that blend custom code with online data-centric services.  Learn how to leverage recent advancements in Microsoft technology that enable seamless interaction with data services both locally and in the Cloud.

In this session, we’ll…

  • Gain a clear understanding of a data service and how the REST protocol plays a key role
  • Explore local, or “on-premises,” data services implemented with the ADO.NET Data Services Framework
  • Explore Cloud-based data services implemented with SQL Data Services
  • Walk through examples with Silverlight and ASP.NET Ajax
  • Show how the ADO.NET Entity Framework provides an underlying foundation for data services 
  • Contrast the difference between SQL Data Services in the cloud and cloud data storage

You’ll walk-away with a clear understanding of how this technology works as well as what is available now and in the near future.
