Title:
P&P and Enterprise Library 3.0
Abstract:
The Patterns & Practices group at Microsoft was formed to provide various forms of guidance to developers and architects creating applications with Microsoft tools and technologies. The group keeps churning out great tools, reference code, and guidance to show you Microsoft’s and industry recommendations for designing, developing, and deploying great applications. In this talk, we’ll introduce the deliverables from the P&P group, the concepts behind Enterprise Library, and cover the new features introduced with version 3.0. You’ll see how Enterprise Library’s features might be leveraged to improve your own development efforts. The tools and guidance from the P&P group are freely available with source code, and your awareness of them will help you be a more effective developer and architect.
