The Service Bus

The problem: Exposing internal applications on the Internet isn’t easy

Network address translation (NAT) and firewalls get in the way

The solution:Service Bus provides a cloud-based intermediary between clients and internal applicationsIt also provides a service registry that clients can use to find the services they need

Java & Ruby SDKs for .NET Services

.NET SDKs

Enabling Interoperability between heterogeneous systems

Cross Platform SDK for .NET Services

Goals of these community-based projects

 Java SDK for .NET ServicesContributors: Schakra Inc, Microsoft Sample ScenarioSupply Chain Management (Java)Supply Chain Management (SCM) is a general scenario where a retailer provides a products catalog to end users based on products in a warehouse. The sample illustrates the usage and interaction of the Java SDK with Microsoft .NET Services. www.jdotnetservices.com 

 

Ruby SDK for .NET ServicesContributors: Thoughtworks, MicrosoftSample ScenarioClassifieds Application (Ruby)This scenario presents a simple classified advertisement system that can be used to post, browse, or search for ads. This sample shows how to use the .NET Services from Ruby with the Ruby SDK.www.dotnetservicesruby.com

 

Future support for PHP & Python

Enable Java, Ruby developers to leverage the Microsoft .NET Services extend their Java and Ruby applications by using the Microsoft cloud servicesplatform to build, deploy and manage reliable, Internet-scale applications

Open source software development kits (SDKs) including:

a set of libraries, tools, Prescriptive guidance

sample applications enhance productivity for Java

and Ruby developers

Java SDK for .NET ServicesHigh level Architecture

Open source project offers Java libraries, samples and guidance help Java developers to build applications using the Microsoft .NET Services.

Architecture: Java SDK leverages Metro, an open source web services stack (part of the GlassFish project supported by Sun Microsystems). Metro includes WSIT, which provides support for the core WS-* standards and an enhanced support for interoperability with the Windows Communication Foundation and the .NET Framework.

Ruby SDK for .NET Services

Open source project The Ruby SDK for .NET Services is an open source project that helps Ruby programs communicate with Microsoft .NET Services using plain HTTP.

The Ruby SDK for .NET Services is an open source project that helps Ruby programs communicate with Microsoft .NET Services using plain HTTP.

Specifically the SDK includes set of REST libraries, tools, prescriptive patterns & guidance and sample applications that will enhance productivity for Ruby developers.

Developers will be able to leverage the .NET Services to extend their Ruby applications by using the Microsoft cloud services platform to build, deploy and manage reliable, Internet-scale applications.

Sample scenario: Classifieds ApplicationThis scenario presents a simple classified advertisement system that can be used to post, browse, or search for ads. This sample shows how to use the .NET Services from Ruby with the Ruby SDK.
