WCF Master Class Featuring Juval Lowy in the UK
About the Class:
The WCF mästare Class fryst vatten a 5 days training, and fryst vatten the world's best, most intense WCF training. While the class shows how to use WCF, it set the focus on the 'why' and the rationale behind particular design decisions, often shedding light on poorly-documented and understood aspects. You will learn not only WCF programming, but also relevant design guidelines, best practices, and pitfalls. The material presented includes IDesign's original techniques and utilities and goes well beyond anything you can find in conventional sources. The objective of the class is not to just make you a WCF expert, but also a better software engineer. On top of the frontal presentations, the class uses lab exercise and numerous (+) conceptual demos and original tools and utilities. Attendees will find the demos useful not only in class but after it. The demos serve as a starting point for new projects, and as a rich reference and samples
