Consultant and author David Chappell of Chappell & Associates provides a close look at Microsoft's .NET My Services - a new kind of platform for building a new kind of application. Microsoft .NET My Services consists of a network authentication service together with a group of SOAP-callable Web services that allow access to information. Applications can be built on these services that let end users access and share their own data from diverse software running on many different devices. In addition, applications that use .NET My Services can offer new kinds of services, allowing developers to create more powerful and more useful Web-based software. This program will give executives a head start in understanding the types of applications .NET My Services make possible, and how they can help a business run more efficiently.
For those with access to the CD and online versions, this program provides a selection of Web links, including articles such as, 'Jumping Into .NET: Is Now the Right Time?' from ADTmag, that discuss the advantages and risks of creating applications using the .NET framework. White papers such as 'Passport to Monopoly' explore the technologies behind the .NET My Services application platform. In addition, the Microsoft Series glossary provides definitions for more than 300 technical terms.
