Introducing Project Codename Astoria
The new wave of web applications are built on technologies such as AJAX
and Microsoft Silverlight that enable developers to build better, richer user
experiences. These technologies bring a shift in how applications are
organized, including a stronger separation of presentation from data.
The goal of Microsoft Codename Astoria is to enable applications to
expose data as a data service that can be consumed by web clients within a
corporate network and across the internet. The data service is reachable over
HTTP, and URIs are used to identify the various pieces of information available
through the service. Interactions with the data service happens in terms of
HTTP verbs such as GET, POST, PUT and DELETE, and the data exchanged in those
interactions is represented in simple formats such as XML and JSON.
We are delivering this first early release of Astoria as a Community Tech
Preview you can download and also as an experimental online service you can
access over the internet.
Nos leemos!
