Silverlight Line of Business Applications

A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of presenting a talk entitled, "Silverlight Line of Business Applications" at the Atlanta Silverlight Meetup Group. This talk focused on several aspects of building line of business applications, ranging from the principles that belong in the foundation or architecture, to specific frameworks and methodologies.

You can view the video below, or link directly by clicking here. I did take some time to encode chapters, so if you click the chapter icon in the player, you can jump to sections. I was hesitant to post this because there was not a microphone at the event. I spoke loud and recorded the talk via the built-in laptop microphone but the sound quality suffered as a result and there is plenty of background noise.

I hope the value of the content makes up for the poor audio quality. Here is the table of contents:

  • What is "Line of Business"?
  • Frameworks and Tools
  • Demo: Unit Testing Framework
  • Data Access Strategies
  • WCF RIA Services
  • Demo: RIA with POCO
  • UI Modularity and Scalability
  • Silverlight 4 and Beyond

I hope you enjoy the video and appreciate any comments or feedback you may have!
