Enterprise Instrumentation Framework [EIF]
Microsoft finally published EIF to MSDN Subscriber Downloads, their new approach to logging, tracing, auditing applications within th enterprise. During the Everett(VS.NET 2003) beta, I was very disappointed that it was a no-show, especially after the prominant mention of this framework in the document announcing the roadmap that included Everett. I asked many times about EIF within the Beta forums, but never received a response, and seriously thought this was just a bit of vaporware...but now it is actually here.
Now, I just need a day or two to twiddle these bits to see how useful they are.....more soon!
