The document discusses several topics: 1. Visual Studio 2008 includes enhancements like improved JavaScript support, new server controls, LINQ support, and new WCF tools. 2. Astoria allows data to be exposed and consumed via URIs using LINQ queries and formats like JSON. 3. Silverlight 1.0 controls can be used in custom ASP.NET controls and updated via AJAX calls using LINQ queries.

39. Languages .NET - C# or VB.NET DB access language such as T-SQL (SQL WR 3) Enterprise Architecture – SOA, web services, etc… ORM or Data mapping XSD DataSets> LINQ>LINQ to SQL LINQ to Entities> Astoria (ADO.NET Web Data Services (subset of WCF)

42. XAML events methods Media – wmv, mp3, etc… Proxy – [ScriptService] + LINQ HTML Java Script

45. Patterns and libraries enabling data to be exposed as a data service that can be consumed by web clients– goal is FLEXIBILITY Based on WCF (via URIs over HTTP) Uses new data-retrieval model built on LINQ (to Entities) Return types – POX, JSON(P), others Designed to work with AJAX & Silverlight

46. Physical – SSDL (Storage or Store) schema Mapping schema – MSL can re-map if data store db structure changes FLEXIBILITY! Conceptual – CSDL (Logical) schema Data Source SSDL – physical Conceptual Schema Definition Files CSDL 1 CSDL 2 MSL - mapping
