Class Description
Class Overview
Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is Microsoft's new framework for building distributed systems. It unifies and builds on the diverse set of existing distribution mechanisms, which include ASP.NET Web services and .NET Remoting. WCF enables developers to produce highly configurable, secure, reliable and transactional services using a single simplified programming model. And since WCF supports the WS-* series of Web service standards, it enables simple interoperation with other platforms and technologies. This WCF training course covers the essentials of the technology and includes a large number of working examples using C# 2008 and lab exercises.
Class Goals
- Learn what WCF is, and how it unites existing distribution mechanisms.
