In-Memory Data Grid (IMDG) technology solves this fundamental problem by acting as super-efficient application accelerator, taking advantage of unused resources readily available on the grid - disk, memory, IO - to put the data in memory of the same computer that performs the calculations. The talk will explore how IMDG can be easily integrated with existing enterprise grids to create data-aware grid applications and provide application performance acceleration while improving application scalability and reliability.]]></description></item><item><title>Web Service Virtualization for SOA Runtime Governance and Control</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/584383.htm</guid><link>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/584383.htm</link><pubDate>Thu, 19 Jun 2008 10:00:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/584383_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Managing Web Services in production is no easy task. Ensuring that services follow corporate security and SOA governance requirements, monitoring compliance with individual SLAs, preventing one client from degrading the performance of others and ensuring services built today will work in the future are a few of the challenges. Web service virtualization provides a separate layer that isolates business and operational rules, enabling you to quickly configure virtual Web services while enforcing business and operational policies. This services layer augments Web services management (WSM) tools and registries, making all the services in the enterprise more efficient and consistent.]]></description></item><item><title>Final Voting Phase on OpenAjax Browser Wishlist</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/590247.htm</guid><link>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/590247.htm</link><pubDate>Wed, 18 Jun 2008 19:45:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/590247_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[The OpenAjax Alliance is developing an Ajax industry wishlist for future browsers, using a dedicated wiki.

Before the term fades away completely, perhaps we should agree what's valuable about the move to SOA and how to make the leap, and make the leap valuable. OMG's SOA Consortium is making great strides in defining SOA to be a valuable business strategy for business agility, taking advantage of Enterprise Architecture, Business Process Management and other concepts; and the OMG itself is making headway on modeling standards for services (as opposed to yet another set of standards for moving bits around wires).]]></description></item><item><title>AJAX World RIA Conference News - Microsoft&apos;s Brad Abrams to Present on Silverlight 2</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/588362.htm</guid><link>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/588362.htm</link><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jun 2008 09:45:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/588362_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Many of today (and tomorrow's) development projects lend themselves nicely to RIA application patterns.

I can do more faster and have it look better and run more efficiently in Silverlight 2.0 than I can in Flex. BUT, when you're looking for case studies, look for ones where the person or organization who adopted Silverlight did so of their own volition, without being approached by Microsoft. I'm interested in hardcore, unbiased opinions from people who have been in the trenches doing their own coding, not watching Microsoft consultants do the coding for them. There are plenty of case studies like that out there, you just have to look past the shiny bouncing balls that are the Olympics and the Oscars and all the other crap that probably cost Microsoft a hojillion dollars in marketing funds and incentives.]]></description></item><item><title>Silverlight 2 - Adobe Flex Killer Is on Its Way!</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/513771.htm</guid><link>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/513771.htm</link><pubDate>Sun, 13 Apr 2008 11:00:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/513771_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Silverlight 2.0 kicks ass and I can't wait to start dropping more hardcore blog posts regarding it.

Silverlight 2.0, to me, represents the idea of what Silverlight should have been from the start. It is a rich, full-featured, amazingly powerful subset of WPF that runs on a miniature CLR and allows developers to re-use their existing experience, design patterns, skills, knowledge, and abilities with C#, .NET, and WPF. It also allows designers to re-use their knowledge and experience using the Expression Blend suite of products for producing XAML-based designs and artifacts.]]></description></item><item><title>Scott Guthrie Posts More Details About Silverlight 2.0</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/505702.htm</guid><link>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/505702.htm</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Feb 2008 20:00:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/505702_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Silverlight 2 includes a rich set of built-in controls that developers and designers can use to quickly build applications.

This allows you to profile your entire application on a per-method-call basis all in a tight integrated system without having to deal with complicated distributed deployments. Once you've done your profiling you will be able to see what communications are chatty, which ones are chunky. Further, you can then decide whether you want Service A to be in the 'secure' server type and whether you need Service B to be running on the 'high availability' server type, etc.]]></description></item><item><title>Getting Started with Silverlight: Zero to Hero</title><guid isPermaLink="true">http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/463961.htm</guid><link>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/463961.htm</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Nov 2007 22:00:00 EST</pubDate><comments>http://silverlight.sys-con.com/read/463961_f.htm</comments><description><![CDATA[Lots of people have been asking about how to get started with Silverlight, and what they need to do to get up and running with Silverlight quickly.
