whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Transactional File System (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  This webcast will show how to work with the new transactional file system in Windows Server 2008. In the past, it was extremely difficult to ensure consistency between work done on the file system and work done with transactional resources such as Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ). Systems that manage documents or files along with other data often had a tendency to become inconsistent. In this webcast, the attendee will learn how to move, create, and copy files within the TransactionScope in the Microsoft .NET Framework code. It also explains how to ensure that when the transaction commits or rolls back, file operation has completed or reverted as expected.

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation Top to Bottom (Part 07 of 15): Messaging Patterns (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  When a distributed enterprise system is build, many types of message exchange are available to meet the needs of different communication patterns. This webcast discusses a variety of messaging patterns and describes how they satisfy different deployment and communication requirements for the services. The presenter of this webcast explores approaches for handling large messages, such as Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) and streaming. The attendee will learn how classic message exchange patterns are employed and the presenter discusses the impact on service contract design and communications as they move from request/reply to introduce one-way operations or callback contracts (duplex).

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation Top to Bottom (Part 08 of 15): Instancing Modes (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) services can be configured so that the lifetime of the service instance is limited to the duration of the request, for the duration of a client session (proxy instance), or forever, as in the case of singleton services. Instancing modes in WCF control the way that service objects are allocated to handle requests. Requests to each service endpoint are processed by the appropriate service object, based on the instancing mode for the service type. This webcast explore PerCall, PerSession, and Single instancing modes, explain call and lifetime semantics for each, and illustrate the scenarios in which they are best applied.

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Framework Masterclass: Working With LINQ (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Data access has evolved over time to make working with databases easier and more productive. In the Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.5, access to data is integrated natively into the languages. This webcast looks at what Microsoft .NET Language Integrated Query (LINQ) is, and it provides an overview of how it can help developers increase productivity.

whitepaper TechNet Webcast: Windows PowerShell in Windows Server 2008 (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  This webcast sheds some light on Windows PowerShell, the new interactive shell and scripting language built on the Microsoft .NET Framework. It provides many examples of how Windows PowerShell can empower the Windows Server 2008 administrator. Windows PowerShell provides object-based pipelining, rather than just plain text as in other shells.

whitepaper Microsoft Webcast: Regular Expressions in Different Products (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  This webcast explores real-world examples of using regular expressions in different products. It begins with the Microsoft .NET Framework Web and Windows applications and move on to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and Jscript. Additionally, it creates a class scenario and work on the solution together as a group.

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation Top to Bottom (Part 04 of 15): Exceptions and Faults (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  In a distributed system, exceptions that occur remotely must traverse process or computer boundaries before they reach the client. In a service-oriented architecture (SOA), the boundary is a service boundary that may be located in the same process, or across process or computer boundaries. Beyond these distribution boundaries, there may also be technology and platform boundaries: such situations require interoperable communication. This webcast provide an introduction to SOAP faults and their relationship to service metadata, since they are the standard for propagating exceptions from services. It also discusses different exception handling scenarios in Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), including how services and clients handle common language runtime (CLR) exceptions, how to declare and throw SOAP faults, and how to provide common exception-handling behaviors for a service using IErrorHandler.

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation Top to Bottom (Part 05 of 15): Bindings (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  So far this series has shown how to expose a service endpoint using a few of the standard bindings, such as NetTcpBinding and BasicHttpBinding. In fact, every service endpoint is associated with a particular binding. Bindings describe the transport protocol, message encoding format, and other messaging protocols that define the communication channel. This webcast explains how binding configuration builds the communication channel, introduce to each of the standard bindings, and explain the core protocols and features provided by each of these bindings. It also covers common scenarios where standard bindings can be applied, describe configuration settings that are most applicable to the scenario, and explore how to apply a custom binding when the standard bindings do not satisfy requirements.

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Building Calendars Using Windows Presentation Foundation (Level 200)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  The presenter of this webcast explains how to use Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) technology to build one's own calendar application from scratch and give a visual representation to the upcoming activities and tasks. For example, display scheduled out-of-town trips with color-coded entries. Similarly, display different types of meetings (business, school, social) on the calendar using different symbols. This webcast explains how to link the calendar to a simple XML file that contains information. It also describes how to enter and update data in this XML file easily using WPF data binding.

whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Windows Communication Foundation Top to Bottom (Part 01 of 15): Overview (Level 100)0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is the Microsoft messaging platform for building service-oriented applications. Released with the Windows Vista operating system, and part of the Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.0, WCF unifies the programming model for how components and services communicate: be they distributed or not, accessible beyond firewalls, or available through interoperable interfaces. The attendee of this webcast will learn how WCF is the evolution of Microsoft .NET Remoting, Enterprise Services, Microsoft ASP.NET Web Services (ASMX), and Web Services Enhancements (WSE) in a single technology stack. The presenter introduces WCF as a technology for Service-Orientated Architecture (SOA), discusses the programming model, and provides a short overview of core features.
