Developing Data-tier Applications using Visual Studio 2010

elisaj — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 15:36:00 GMT

DBAs and developers alike find it hard to effectively develop, deploy and manage a data-tier application throughout its lifecycle. SQL Server developers today want to create a data-tier application they can test, declaratively deploy across multiple instances while the system deals with version upgrades. SQL Server DBAs on the other hand want to know deployment requirements a priori and they too want the system to perform some of the mechanical upgrade operations instead of managing data-tier applications via a bunch of scripts. In this video we will dive into Microsoft’s investments in the SQL Server data-tier application space and demonstrate the concepts and tools that simplify development and deployment of data-tier applications using Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server Management Studio in SQL Server 2008 R2.

NOTE: Visual Studio 2010 Beta2 currently supports deploying Data-tier applications only to SQL Server 2008 R2. Please download and install the upcoming CTP3 of SQL Server 2008 R2 in order to use Data-tier Application Projects in Visual Studio 2010 Beta2.

Coding .NET on a Netbook

Dave Isbitski — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:08:00 GMT

Netbooks are becoming very popular these days. But what does Windows 7 really run like on it? Can I run Ultimate? What about being a developer - can I run Visual Studio 2008/2010, Expression Studio 3.0, Silverlight and WPF?

The answer is yes. I've been using a Netbook as my main development machine for a few weeks now and wanted to show you what I've learned. See first hand what the development tools you know and love run like on a Netbook.

Ben Livshits and Emre Kiciman - AjaxView, Performance Profiling of AJAX web sites

Peli de Halleux — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 18:34:00 GMT

The tool lets you investigate the performance of the client side javascript!

Parallel Tasks – new Visual Studio 2010 debugger window

Daniel Moth — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 19:29:00 GMT

UPDATED for the VS2010 Beta 2 release

Author: Hi, I am Daniel Moth

Introduction:

In the next version of .NET and C++ that ship with Visual Studio 2010, a new task-based programming model is introduced. In this short video you will learn about Parallel Tasks, a new debugger window that helps developers debug applications that use tasks. You will also get a glimpse at the task-specific features of the Parallel Stacks debugger window introduced in another video.

To read more about the features of the Parallel Tasks window please read my blog post here. To follow some steps and explore the Parallel Tasks (and Parallel Stacks) windows on your own Visual Studio 2010 follow this MSDN walkthrough.

Parallel Stacks – new Visual Studio 2010 debugger window

Daniel Moth — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 21:21:00 GMT

UPDATED for the VS2010 Beta 2 release

Author: Hi, I am Daniel Moth

Introduction:

As developers try to take advantage of more and more cores in their applications, ultimately more and more threads will execute their code at the same time. When debugging such applications, there is a need to visualize multiple call stacks of multiple threads in a single view. This scenario is supported in Visual Studio 2010 via a new debugger window that this short video explores: Parallel Stacks.

To read more about the features of the Parallel Stacks window please read my blog posts here, here and here. To follow some steps and explore the Parallel Stacks (and Parallel Tasks) windows on your own Visual Studio 2010 installation, follow this MSDN walkthrough.
