Juval Lowy - Introducing the .NET Service Bus

martinesmann — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:10:00 GMT

The .NET services bus is part of the new Microsoft Cloud Computing Windows Azure initiative, and arguably, it is the most accessible, ready to use, powerful, and needed piece. The service bus allows clients to connects to services across any machine, network, firewall, NAT, routers, load balancers, virtualization, IP and DNS as if they were part of the same local network, and doing all that without compromising on the programming model or security. The service bus also supports callbacks, event publishing, authentication and authorization and doing all that in a WCF-friendly manner. This session will present the service bus programming model, how to configure and administer service bus solutions, working with the dedicated relay bindings including the available communication modes, relying on authentication in the cloud for local services and the various authentication options, and how to provide for end-to-end security through the relay service. You will also see some advanced WCF programming techniques, original helper classes, productivity-enhancing utilities and tools, as well as discussion of design best practices and pitfalls.

Juval Lowy – The EnergyNet and the next Killer App

Robert Hess — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 22:06:00 GMT

Many people love to speculate on what the next Killer App might be. Juval Lowy will use his ideal killer app as the basis of his upcoming workshop at PDC09 on November 16th. He’d like to think that the EnergyNet (yeah… I called it “energyweb” in my intro) might provide such a cohesive blending of commercial and residential energy use, the devices which consume that energy and the resources that provide it, that this will become an important piece of our daily lives. It will save money, save energy, and perhaps even save the planet.

In his workshop, he is going to illustrate how the notion of an EnergyNet is made possible through technologies such as Windows Communication Foundation and the .NET Service Bus. I’ve asked special correspondent Bruno Terkaly to interview Juval and get some details on what you’ll learn about in this workshop.

You can get some more details on the EnergyNet in an interview that Juval did for ARCast.TV on Channel9 here:

ARCast.TV - Juval Lowy on The EnergyNet, the next software boom

Bob Familiar — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 19:06:00 GMT

The ongoing economy unraveling is the defining moment of our time. Many professional developers are fearful for their livelihood, as employers and customers cut and slash development plans, and as economic activity grinds to a halt. But not everywhere. In centers of technical excellence and innovation such as the Silicon Valley, the major players, from investors to industry leaders, are aligning themselves with the next boom in software, a field Juval Lowy calls the Energynet. Alternative energy covers a wide range, from new cars, to micro renewal sources energy producers, infrastructure upgrades to charge stations and distribution, new power and transformation grids, and integration of billing systems, let alone commercial building and homes modification. And the key for making all that work is software. We simply cannot make the physics or the chemistry substantially better, but we can profoundly integrate systems, iron out inefficiency, automate and vertically integrate energy trading, production and consumption; and the key to all of that is great software. This massive new software system is the Energynet, and the analogy to the Internet is a good one - instead of packets and request the Energynet transfers watts and usage data, connecting anything and everything in the energy market. In this unique session, Juval Lowy presents the case for the next boom in software, shares personal observation and perspectives, and points out the skills and expertise required of developers that want to not only survive but thrive on the next boom in software.

ARCast.TV - Juval Lowy on Interface Based Design

Bob Familiar — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 00:10:00 GMT

Should you use abstract classes or interfaces? What about WCF service contracts? Is the decision which one to use a design decision or a direct product of the technology at hand? Why is .NET allowing you such wide range of options, and why are other technologies (from COM to WCF) restricting you? In this ARCast, Juval Lowy of iDesign will demystify these age-old questions and share his insight and perspective with Denny Boynton.
