If you think you're well versed in ASP.NET, think again. This <br />
exceptional guide gives you a master class in site building with ASP.NET <br />
3.5 and other cutting-edge Microsoft technologies. You learn how to <br />
develop rock-solid web portal applications that can withstand millions <br />
of hits every day while surviving scalability and security pressures -- <br />
not just for mass-consumer homepages, but also for dashboards that <br />
deliver powerful content aggregation for enterprises. Written by Omar AL <br />
Zabir, co-founder and CTO of Pageflakes, Building a Web 2.0 Portal with <br />
ASP.NET 3.5 demonstrates how to develop portals similar to My Yahoo!, <br />
iGoogle, and Pageflakes using ASP.NET 3.5, ASP.NET AJAX, Windows <br />
Workflow Foundation, LINQ and .NET 3.5. Through the course of the book, <br />
AL Zabir builds an open source Ajax-enabled portal prototype (available <br />
online at "www.dropthings.com"), and walks you though the design and <br />
architectural challenges, advanced Ajax concepts, performance <br />
optimization techniques, and server-side scalability problems involved. <br />
You learn how to: Implement a highly decoupled architecture following <br />
the popular n-tier, widget-based application model Provide drag-and-drop <br />
functionality, and use ASP.NET 3.5 to build the server-side part of the <br />
web layer Use LINQ to build the data access layer, and Windows Workflow <br />
Foundation to build the business layer as a collection of workflows <br />
Build client-side widgets using JavaScript for faster performance and <br />
better caching Get maximum performance out of the ASP.NET AJAX Framework <br />
for faster, more dynamic, and scalable sites Build a custom web service <br />
call handler to overcome shortcomings in ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 for <br />
asynchronous, transactional, cache-friendlyweb services Overcome <br />
JavaScript performance problems, and help the user interface load faster <br />
and be more responsive Solve scalability and security problems as your <br />
site grows from hundreds to millions of users Deploy and run a <br />
high-volume production site while solving software, hardware, hosting, <br />
and Internet infrastructure problems Building a Web 2.0 Portal with <br />
ASP.NET 3.5 also presents real-world ASP.NET challenges that the author <br />
has solved in building educational and enterprise portals, plus thirteen <br />
production disasters common to web applications serving millions of <br />
users. If you're ready to build state-of-the art, high-volume web <br />
applications, this book has exactly what you need. <br />
