Product Description

Book Description

Develop Cloud Applications with WCF for .NET 4.0

Product Description

Programming WCF Services is the authoritative, bestselling guide to Microsoft's unified platform for developing modern service-oriented applications on Windows. Hailed as the definitive treatment of WCF, this book provides unique insight, rather than documentation, to help you learn the topics and skills you need for building WCF-based applications that are maintainable, extensible, and reusable.

Author Juval Löwy -- one of the world's top .NET experts -- revised this edition to include the newest productivity-enhancing features of .NET Framework 4 and the Azure AppFabric Service Bus, as well as the latest WCF ideas and techniques. By teaching you the why and the how of WCF programming, Programming WCF Services will help you master WCF and make you a better software engineer.

  • Learn about WCF architecture and essential building blocks, including key concepts such as reliability and transport sessions
  • Use built-in features such as service hosting, instance and concurrency management, transactions, disconnected queued calls, security, and discovery
  • Master the Windows Azure AppFabric Service Bus, the most revolutionary piece of the new cloud computing initiative
  • Increase your productivity and the quality of your WCF services by taking advantage of relevant design options, tips, and best practices in Löwy's ServiceModelEx framework
  • Discover the rationale behind particular design decisions, and delve into rarely understood aspects of WCF development

"If you choose to learn WCF, you've chosen well. If you choose to learn with the resource and guidance of Juval Löwy, you've done even better... there are few people alive today who know WCF as well."

--Ron Jacobs, Senior Technical Evangelist for WCF, Microsoft Corporation

Format:Paperback
This is really the only book on service bus and pushing WCF with Azure AppFabric which is miles appart from Windows (iis 7.5) AppFabric Pro Windows Server AppFabric (Expert's Voice in .NET). Windows AppFabric and Azure AppFabric are as different as chalk and trees.

This book has virtual pages which far exceed the physical pages. This is not the first book you should read on WCF. Juval is very smart (been to his lectures) but it is high-end WCF. Infact its really another kind of C# (newer better) and nothing to do with Web Services, like WCF is way beyond web services. If you are just using WCF to replace WS* then maybe you beed a basic book

Had great time reading the book. As a beginner to this technology, and an eager tcp/ip programmer, this book helped me create great services while understanding the technology behind.

Format:Kindle Edition
Purchased my first Kindle book using One-Click.
Would you believe it, it turned out to be the 1st Edition.
Be very careful in what you click - seems that all three versions are available for the Kindle all at the same price - daft!
