Screencast Published - Understanding The Azure Table Storage API

rob.bagby — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 23:36:23 GMT

Are you interested in Azure Table Storage? Do you want to know about the REST API of Table Storage? Do you want to know how we authorize calls to the service? If so, I have released a new screencast breaking down the REST API of Azure Table Storage. In this screencast, I illustrate consuming Azure Table Storage from a variety of means. I show you the easy way, using the StorageClient sample application along with the ADO.NET Data Services Client Libraries, as well as making calls directly to the REST API using Fiddler as the client.

Take a look. I really appreciate your feedback, so please leave me a comment!

Screencast published - Creating a HI-REST WCF Service that exposes Insert and Update via PUT

rob.bagby — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 20:27:01 GMT

I just published a 27 minute screencast on Channel9 on creating a HI-REST PUT Service that exposes Insert and Update. As you know, RESTful services expose more than just GET. Many times, we also have to expose the capability to insert, update and delete. There are many differing opinions on how inserts, updates and deletes should be modeled in a "RESTful" architecture. This screencast illustrates one such model and further shows how to implement this model with WCF 3.5. I will show you how to implement a HI-REST service utilizing PUT for inserts and updates. Future deCasts will illustrate other models.

Creating an AJAX-Friendly WCF Service Screencast Published

rob.bagby — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 19:34:07 GMT

I just published a 24 minute screencast on Channel9 on creating an AJAX-Friendly WCF Service. You may be asking yourself what 'AJAX-Friendly' means. To me (and to WCF), it means exposing the ability to call a WCF service from an AJAX client in just a few lines of code. Prior to WCF 3.5, this was not possible. With WCF 3.5 came our Web-Friendly binding: webHttpBinding. That binding has two endpoint behaviors. One of the endpoint behaviors is called enableWebScript and that is what I refer to as our 'AJAX-Friendly' profile. To put it simply, this endpoint behavior provides the ability to generate a client proxy script that you can use to call your service. In this screencast, I will illustrate to you how to take advantage of this binding and endpoint behavior.
