Tellago is still hiring….
Tellago's SOA practice is rapidly growing and we are still hiring. In that sense, we are looking to for Connected Systems (WCF, BizTalk, WF) experts who are passionate about building game changing solutions with the latest Microsoft technologies. You will be working alongside technology gurus like DonXml, Pablo Cibraro or Dwight Goins. If you are interested and not afraid of working with a bunch of crazy people ;)please drop me a line at jesus dot rodriguez at tellago dot com.

Speaking at Microsoft's Duth DevDays
Last week I had the pleasure of presenting two sessions at Microsoft's Dutch DevDays at Den Hague. On Tuesday I presented a sessions about how to implement real world RESTFul services patterns using WCF, WCF Data Services and ASP.NET MVC2. During that session I showed a total of 15 small demos that highlighted how to implement key aspects of RESTful solutions such as Security, LowREST clients, URI modeling, Validation, Error Handling, etc. As part of those demos I used the OAuth implementation created by my colleague Pablo Cibraro.

The WCF Extensibility Guidance is now on MSDN!
As the WCF team already announced, the first chapter of the WCF Extensibility Guidance is now available on MSDN . This paper is the result of an effort I started a few months ago with my colleague and friend Pablo Cibraro. Our goal was to provide a detailed guidance of the major extensibility points of the WCF runtime. In that sense, we decided to cover major areas of the WCF extensibility programming model such as channels, client-dispatcher, security, hosting, metadata, RESTful service and even the new extensions on WCF 4.0.

Using WCF 4.0 XAML Services in the real world: Activating WCF Services from a central repository
Declarative Services is one of the new features included in the .NET framework 4.0. In a nutshell, declarative services are WCF services modeled and implemented entirely in XAML. This feature is fundamentally enabled by extending Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) 4.0 with the capability of modeling WCF contracts using XAML. You can read more details about declarative services on the MSDN documentation. Even if you are not entirely familiar with WF as a technology, I am sure you can see the advantages of implementing services in a declarative languages.

Speaking about WCF and WF 4.0 at VSLive
Next Monday I will be presenting two sessions at VSLive Las Vegas. The first session is about the WCF 4.0 extensibility model and it covers almost all the major extensibility points of the different WCF subsystems such as messaging, security, instancing, etc.

Extending Dublin’s tracking service by implementing a custom tracking participant
In a previous post we've explored how to extend Dublin's forwarding service by implementing a custom message filter. This post continues the series by illustrating the extensibility model of Dublin's tracking service.

Using XAML serialization in WCF 4.0
Declarative Services is one of the exciting new features of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) 4.0. By declarative, we are referring to services that are completely modeled by using the Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML). As you might think, this capability will open to door for a whole new set of scenarios in Service Oriented systems which are really hard to implement with the current technologies. The specific capabilities of declarative services will be the subject of a future post. Today, I would like to explore one of the features that enable the implementation of declarative services: XAML serialization.
