Building data-driven HTML5 apps with WCF RIA Services
with Asad Khan, Dinesh Kulkarni
Data-centric apps with rich user experience often require significant plumbing across multiple tiers. We simplify n-tier apps by bridging Web client technologies with services – using WCF RIA Services, rich JavaScript client cache, OData, jQuery and effective data binding to UI elements. We will cover common app patterns supported by frameworks and tools for writing business logic, retrieving data with flexible local and remote query capabilities, effective caching and change tracking, integrated validation and built-in authentication and authorization. We will show how to build apps with browser and mobile clients and host them on premise or in the cloud.
