Tuesday: NoSQL Day
The demands placed on the systems we build keep growing: handle more users, offer more intelligent behavior, parallelize development and deployment, manage partial failures in applications, offer Operations insight and the ability to tweak the systems at runtime, etc.

In WCF vNext Microsoft is making serious investments to provide richer and more natural support for HTTP. This is not just about adding a new set of attributes :-) It's about providing pure HTTP support at every level within the stack. It's the "have it your way" of HTTP! We're embracing HTTP so you can embrace HTTP within your own development.
Glenn is a PM on the WCF team working on Microsoft’s future HTTP and REST stack. Prior to WCF he was a PM on the new Managed Extensibility Framework in .NET 4.0. He has experience both inside and outside Microsoft developing software solutions for ISVs and the enterprise. He has also been active in involving folks from the community in the development of software at Microsoft. This has included shipping products under open source licenses, as well as assisting other teams looking to do so.

I've gotten a *lot* of experience over the past 2-3 years in constructing Fluent Interface and internal DSL's with C. I'd like to share some lessons learned about both the mechanics of creating a DSL (i.e., there's more tools in ye olde toolbox than method chaining), and the possible applications of small internal DSL's. Specifically, I'll be sharing my experiences with using the patterns for Internal DSL's that are documented in Martin Fowler's upcoming book on DSL's.

Being a software developer is hard. Especially as the pace of change, it can be difficult to keep up. In this talk Shawn will show you some of his opinion about how to find the right technologies to pay attention to and stop worrying about learning everything.

Our application runs over 10,000 sustained transactions per second with a rich model. The key? Modeling state transitions explicitly. In today's world many systems have non–functional requirements that prevent them from being single database centric. This presentation looks at how Domain Driven Design can fit into such environments including extremely large scale web sites, batch processing, and even using highly scalable backing stores such as CouchDb or HyperTable.
Greg Young is an independent consultant who lives in two suitcases (literally). When not travelling around working for clients throughout the world you can often find him on the domain driven design list,
blogging at codebetter.com, or floating upside down in a kayak through rapids.

We could slice/dice the angle as “needed”:
- Why create your own Test Framework?
- How do you get the most out of your consultants?
- Implementing a test framework from scratch – Patterns & Anti-patterns?
- What are the properties of a successful test framework?
- Process or features – what do you expect from your test framework
- MEF, the answer for plug ability?
Ulrich is "Testing Services Solution Architect" at Saxo Bank A/S. He is the main architect behind a test framework implemented in Saxo Bank. Going full out, he also implemented a test environment framework based 100% on Microsoft System Center Suite.... Whole solutions for whole problems - and he reads Douglas Adams:-)
Having 25+ years experience he is extremely focused/passionate about delivering, visibility and transparency in software development.
