Other Technologies You Might Find Interesting
There were two CTP releases recently of technology that
don't directly focus on web services but you might find that they make
developing services easier.
The first technology is called Velocity. Velocity is a platform for building
distributed caches to make it easier to develop highly-scalable
applications. There are some included
samples for using Velocity with ASP.NET applications but you can reuse the
platform in a variety of ways.
The second technology is called Task Parallel Library and PLINQ. There are a set of parallel extensions for
writing query and iteration expressions that automatically take advantage of the
data and task parallelism present in high-level programming constructs.
You can get several videos about these parallel extensions on
Channel 9 as well.
