Building a Web 2.0 Portal with ASP.NET 3.5



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