Introduction
WCF Multi-tier Services Development with LINQ helps build SOA applications on the Microsoft platform. It is Ideal for beginners who want to build scalable, powerful, easy-to-maintain WCF services. This book is rich with example code, clear explanations, interesting examples, and practical advice – a truly hands-on book for C++ and C# developers.To read an exclusive chapter,refer: http://www.packtpub.com/wcf-multi-tier-services-development-with-linq/book
What you'll need
If you are a C++/C# developer looking for a book to build real-world WCF services, you would have run into the huge reference tomes currently in the market. These books are crammed with more information than you need and most build simple one-tier WCF services. And if you plan to use LINQ in the data access layer, you might buy another volume that is just as huge and just as expensive.
Steps
Our book is the quickest and easiest way to learn WCF and LINQ in Visual Studio 2008. It is the first book to combine WCF and LINQ in a multi-tier real-world WCF service.Through this book, you will first understand WCF concepts by developing a functional service and apply these techniques to a multi-tier real-world WCF service. You will also learn how to use WCF to define the contracts in the service interface layer, Plain Old C# Objects (POCO) to implement business rules in the business logic layer, and LINQ to communicate with the databases in the data access layer. http://www.packtpub.com/wcf-multi-tier-services-development-with-linq/book
Alternate methods
The book focuses on the essentials of using WCF and LINQ, rather than providing a reference to every single possibility. It leaves the reference material online where it belongs, and concentrates instead on practical examples, code, and advice. It is for C# and C++ developers who are eager to get started with WCF and LINQ, and want a book that is practical and rich with examples from the very beginning.
Suggested readings
This book presumes basic knowledge of C# or C++. Previous experience with Visual Studio will be helpful but is not required, as detailed instructions are given throughout the book.To read more,visit http://www.packtpub.com/wcf-multi-tier-services-development-with-linq/book
