WCF RIA Services introduced in this further simplify Line of Business (LoB) RIA development. It complements the existing Data Access Layer and presentation components in the .NET framework and Silverlight. They build on the foundation of ASP.NET and codify, evolve and support some of the common patterns in web applications. .NET RIA Services address the complexity of building n-tier applications through framework, tools and services. Framework components support prescriptive patterns for writing application logic and validation so that it can be easily used on the presentation tier. In this talk, we will look at the key aspects of .NET RIA Services preview. We will introduce the challenges of building an n-tier RIA and the approach taken to address the challenges. |

| Other Info | Have you ever been told that your failures hurt your career and make you less valuable in your job and life? What people have been telling you in all lies? What makes us stronger and teaches us more is not when we make mistakes but when we use those failures to grow. The key in life is to embrace and celebrate the failures that happen before and after successes. In this talk I will shed away to falsehoods of the notion that failure is a curse and to treat it like a disease. No one likes to fail but actually we fail more than we succeed in life. Just ask Babe Ruth. (we will chat about him and many more so called successful people). |
