Announcing free Microsoft Web & Cloud Computing technical event in Swansea, June 10th 2009
Microsoft are pleased to announce a free one day technical briefing focused on Microsoft platform, tools and software can be used to build great applications, with a particular emphasis on web and cloud computing based solutions.
The day will consist of lots of demos and lively discussion, with the aim of exploring these technologies at a high level - it’s all about the “art of the possible” rather than detailed code walkthroughs. The sessions audience size will be small to keep the conversation flowing, and these sessions are suitable for Technical Decision Makers, CTOs, Application Architects, Developers, etc.
The briefing will include the following technologies and topics:
- Building rich, interactive and scalable web applications with ASP.NET and Silverlight
- SQL Server, Data Mining, Business Intelligence, and designing high performing data access systems
- Windows Azure and Microsoft’s utility cloud computing platform
The day will also include details of the new Microsoft BizSpark program, which is designed to accelerate the success of early stage technology startups, and provides entrepreneurs fast and easy access to current full-featured Microsoft development tools and productions licenses of server products, at minimal and no upfront cost.
