WCF Using C# Training

Course Description  
This 3-day course provides a thorough grounding in Microsoft's important Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) technology, a framework for building distributed systems. WCF unifies and builds on the diverse set of existing distribution mechanisms, which include ASP.NET web services and .NET Remoting. WCF enables developers to produce highly configurable, secure, reliable and transactional services using a single simplified programming model. And since WCF supports the WS-* series of Web service standards, it enables simple interoperation with other platforms and technologies. Students completing the course will: Learn what WCF is, and how it unites existing distribution mechanisms Gain an understanding of addressing and binding in WCF services Use service contracts and data contracts Implement WCF services and clients Perform configuration in both code and configuration files Understand faults and handle errors in WCF applications Implement security in WCF applications

Course Length: 3 Days
Course Tuition: $1190 (US)
Prerequisites
A good working knowledge of building .NET applications with C#. Knowledge of building distributed systems and Web services will also be an advantage.
