In this episode, Michael McKeown explains how to configure Windows Server AppFabric persistence. Though you don’t have to use persistence, if you are creating long-running workflows with Window Workflow Foundation (WF) you will definitely want to do this.

Bob Muglia, President of the Server and Tools Business (STB), joins Dan Fernandez at DevConnections 2010 in Las Vegas as part of the Visual Studio 2010 launch.

This session was recorded live as part of Channel 9 Live at the Visual Studio 2010 Launch from the Bellagio Hotel & Casino on April 12th

MariaDB, the Backward Compatible Branch of MySQL(R) Database Server
Google Tech Talk April 19, 2010 ABSTRACT Presented by Monty Widenius. MariaDB is a community developed, backward compatible, drop-in replacement branch of the MySQL(R) Database Server. What is MariaDB all about, and what is its future? What can you do with new features added in the first GA release of MariaDB 5.1, such as additional Storage Engines (Maria, PBXT, XtraDB, FederatedX), faster complex queries, pools of threads, speed improvements, extensions (more index parts, new startup options, etc.), table elimination, slow query log extended statistics, and more? Monty Widenius is the founder of MySQL(R) AB, and the original author & architect of MySQL(R) Database Server. Monty has founded Monty Program Ab and hired many of the top core developers of the database to create MariaDB, a backward compatible, drop-in replacement branch of MySQL(R) Database Server, in collaboration with the community.

Windows Server AppFabric has extensive monitoring capabilities, which go beyond simply writing events to the server event log. In this video, Michael McKeown explains how you can configure the monitoring level and scope for your workflows and services deployed in IIS with AppFabric.

Are you still using Visual SourceSafe? Is your source code in Subversion? Have you hobbled together a set of open source tools that just “get the job done”? Team Foundation Server 2010 is the best next-step from Visual SourceSafe and other version control systems.

In this session we will dispel the myths for why you aren’t already using Team Foundation Server, show you how get started including migrating your existing code from Visual SourceSafe and introduce you to some of the additional capabilities of Team Foundation Server that will enable you to set up continuous integration builds with quality gates and document and track items from your backlog. If you’ve been thinking about trying Team Foundation Server, now is the time to check it out.

The first book on Windows Server AppFabric will be released in a couple of weeks (you can pre-order it here).

In the meantime, you can listen in while I chat with Stephen Kaufman and Danny Garber about the book and AppFabric.

Just prior to MIX10, Nikhil Kothari appears on the show to demonstrate some of the key advantages around validation when using WCF RIA Services. He demonstrates how to use a Domain Service to expose your domain model and how to create a custom service method to further filter your data server side. Nikhil also shows how the Domain Services generates validation rules using the database attributes such as required fields or maximum string lengths. Other topics Nikhil covers:

  • Domain service generated services and validation
  • Custom service methods
  • Adding your own validation attributes
  • Creating custom validation methods for server and client
  • Creating cross property validation in an entity
  • Creating server only validation that may be called asynchronously from the client
  • Showing validation errors to the user
