Learn to use Web Services with WCF
Microsoft's Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is an application programming interface (API) in the .NET Framework for building solid, highly scalable Service-Oriented applications.
WCF provides many new features including expressing WCF Services entirely in XAML; enhanced Workflow (WF) integration; and RSS Syndication Services.
Our hands-on WCF training course will give .NET developers and architects a solid understanding and practical knowledge of WCF in order to be able to build and deploy commercial services.
You will be guided by an experienced instructor with solid commercial .NET implementation experience.
By the end of this course, you will have learnt:
- WCF Essentials
- WCF Architecture
- Service Contracts
- Data Contracts
- WCF Generics
- Streaming Rich Content with WCF
- Error Handling
- WCF Transactions
- Concurrency Management
- Instance & Concurrency Management
- Queued Services
- WCF Security
- Service Bus
- Azure AppFabric Bus
- Overview of Service Orientation
Who should attend
NET Web Developers and software architects who are looking to create and consume robust, scalable, commercial WCF services.
Prerequisites
Delegates should ideally have experience of developing ASP.NET web apps in C# and/or VB.NET. Experience of creating XML web services would also be useful
On-site
If you would like to discuss custom / on-site WCF development training for any size of team, please get in touch – we would be glad to help build a course that meets your learning requirements.
We can take into account your existing technical skills, project requirements and timeframes, and specific topics of interest to tailor the most relevant and focussed course for you.
This can be particularly useful if you need to learn just the new features and WCF Best Practices, or need to include extra topics to help with pre-requisite skills.
