Live Services: Mesh Services Architecture and Concepts | pdc2008

You've heard how Live Mesh combines the world of the web and the world of digital devices. But what does it mean for you? Take a look under the hood at how the mesh works on the client and in the massively scalable cloud, and learn insights about how to light-up your own solutions for the mesh world. Go deep on FeedSync-based synchronization, authentication and policy, peer connectivity, and more.

How can LM be used to sync line-of-business data? ...e.g. rational or XML data vs. just folders and files?

I'm not a part of PDC (unfortunately), Live Mesh is not a simple file sync service. You can feed information to Live Mesh directly from your application and other devices with the same application can subscribe those feeds. This functionality wasn't available (rather undocumented) for Tech Preview version.

Where's the video download? This was an awesome session and I'd like to see it again.

Sorry guys, we are working on making this one available. There was a problem with this particular recording and it has to be re-encoded. As soon as it's available we'll upload it here. Probably towards the middle of next week since the recordings are in the mail and en-route from LA right now.

In the meantime, you can view around 200 other PDC08 session videos here: https://sessions.microsoftpdc.com/public/timeline.aspx
