MOC 20487: Developing Microsoft Azure and Web Services

Kursusmål
Hvis du ønsker at benytte services i dine løsninger, som trækker på forskellige datakilder, så kan du starte her. Du vil lære at udvikle og at sætte dem i produktion, både lokalt og i skyen (Microsoft Azure).

På baggrund af kurset kan du gøre virksomhedens data lettere tilgængeligt for flere forskellige applikationer. På den måde kan du lette arbejdet og spare tid på vedligeholdelsen af dine programmer, når du vælger en service-orienteret struktur.

På kurset gennemgår vi datatilgang med Entity Framework (ver. 4.0). WebAPI for REST-baserede services og WFC for SOAP-baserede. Du lærer at hoste dine services, både lokalt og i skyen, samt hvordan du sikrer dine services med kryptering. Vi kommer ind på Azure Storage, som er en cloud-baseret service, der tilbyder meget skalérbar og tilgængelig adgang til forskellige elementer fra simple filer, over queues til blobs, der binært kan indeholde stort set alt i binært format. Vi kommer ligeledes ind på benyttelse af Federated Security med ACS i Microsoft Azure, der giver mulighed for at skabe en SingleSignOn (SSO) og/eller benyttelse af 3. part til authentication (som Facebook eller Microsoft ID fx).

Kurset vil blive gennemført med Visual Studio 2012 under Windows 8.

Deltagere
Du har flere års erfaring med udvikling af applikationer lokalt. Du er komfortabel med at kode i C#.

Kursusmateriale
Kurset vil blive afholdt på dansk, og da vi benytter Microsoft digitale materiale (DMOC) vil dette være på engelsk. Under kurset vil der herinde blive stillet en Surface Tablet til rådighed som kan benyttes som læser. Du vil fremover have adgang til materialet både online og lokalt. Skulle Microsoft lave en ny version af kursusmaterialet, så vil du automatisk få adgang til det. Alle øvelser vil anvende Microsoft Online Labs, som er til rådighed i 180 dage i alt. Du kan derfor fortsætte eller starte forfra på en øvelse hjemme, under eller efter kurset hvis du har lyst.

Der vil blive oprettet en konto til Windows Azure, som du benytter under kurset. Denne konto kan du benytte gratis efter kurset i op til 25 dage.
