Summer's here and for the most of us this is the time we take that well-deserved rest and stand back a little from
the daily grind. It's also a time for some reflection, a time to think about the things that we would like to do during the next couple of months.

This is why we will be serving you up with such a refreshing cocktail of new things to enjoy in 4 special issues of the MSDN newsletter. The second topic of this summer edition lets you dive into Business Intelligence.

Explore and dive into Business Intelligence

As you build line-of-business (LOB) applications, information workers need to have proper insights into their business data and ask for an appropriate analytics solution. Building these solutions is often a complex and time-consuming business, resulting in solutions that don't correspond precisely to the user's requirements and expectations. As an ISV, building applications on top of Microsoft SQL Server, you have the platform for business intelligence at your fingertips to help users unlock their business data through reporting, and self-service BI using Excel 2010 and PowerPivot.

Have a look at our website and discover a handpicked choice of articles, white papers and videos explaining what Microsoft BI has to offer for you as an ISV.

• Part 1: Taking Sketched Code Towards Unity 
• Part 2: Dependency Injection with Unity 
• Part 3: Modularity with Prism 
• Part 4: The Unity Bootstrapper 

and then we move that code into the Silverlight world and try to illustrate some specific areas of Prism;

• Part 5: Moving to a Modular Silverlight Project 
• Part 6: Shells, Regions, Views 
• Part 7: Commands 
• Part 8: Loosely Coupled Events with Event Aggregation
• Part 9: Sharing Data via Region Contexts 

and then finally we try and bring some of these concepts together in a longer, more realistic example of a simple Email application built using the Prism framework - warning, this is a much longer session but I wanted something that draws things together;

• Part 10: A Larger Example: "Email Client" 

The recommendation would be that you watch the 10 screencasts in order but if that feels like too long a process or if you're already very familiar with concepts like dependency injection and containers like Unity then perhaps watch the last screencast first and then refer back to the previous screencasts if certain areas need more illumination.

I put the source code for Video 10 here for download as it's a bigger set of source and something you might want to explore after the video - this does not necessarily represent "best practise" but is, instead, just meant to illustrate some of the Prism ideas.

I also mentioned that I would be making a screen cast and sharing the source code from the Silverlight 3 Line of Business demo that I delivered. The demo that I presented was based on Scott Morrison’s two sessions from Tech.Ed North America.

Watch a video of my session using Smooth Streaming.

The source code for these presentations is available below:

• WUX 303: Building Data-Driven RIAs with Microsoft ASP.NET and Microsoft Silverlight
• WUX 308: Delivering Rich User Experiences for Business Applications with Microsoft Silverlight 3

I also updated my presentation to cover the May release of RIA Services from http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/RiaServices (this site also includes tutorials and white papers).
