An End-to-End Sample Application Illustrating Windows Communication Foundation and .NET Enterprise Technologies
This application is an end-to-end sample application for .NET Enterprise Application Server technologies. It is a service-oriented application based on Windows Communication Foundation (.NET 3.0) and ASP.NET, and illustrates many of the .NET enterprise development technologies for building highly scalable, rich “enterprise-connected” applications. It is designed as a benchmark kit to illustrate alternative technologies within .NET and their relative performance.

(An Interesting Discussion)

Interesting report, indeed. We use Server Intellect for our Windows web hosting … the tech support is aweseome. They’re one of the first Windows Web Hosts that is Microsoft Gold Certified – and have Windows Server 2008 ‘Longhorn’ on its Dedicated Servers. The new upgrade is great, with lots of web, security and virtualization upgrades.
