About This Course

Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is a framework for building service-oriented applications. Using WCF, you can send data as asynchronous messages from one service endpoint to another. A service endpoint can be part of a continuously available service hosted by IIS, or it can be a service hosted in an application. An endpoint can be a client of a service that requests data from a service endpoint. The messages can be as simple as a single character or word sent as XML, or as complex as a stream of binary data. A few sample scenarios include: • A secure service to process business transactions. • A service that supplies current data to others, such as a traffic report or other monitoring service. • A chat service that allows two people to communicate or exchange data in real time. • A dashboard application that polls one or more services for data and presents it in a logical presentation. • Exposing a workflow implemented using Windows Workflow Foundation as a WCF service. • A Silverlight application to poll a service for the latest data feeds.

What you will learn: • Learn to implement Service-Oriented Architecture tenets in WCF services. • Learn to host WCF services in a variety of Windows hosts. • Learn to define and implement WCF service contracts, data contracts, and message contracts. • Learn to use multiple endpoints in WCF with various messaging patterns. • Learn to test, troubleshoot, monitor, and diagnose WCF services. • Learn to ensure service reliability using transactions and message queues. • Learn to secure WCF services using message and transport security. • Learn to extend WCF using behaviors, dispatchers, inspectors, and formatters.
