Presentation: "Painless Persistence with Castle ActiveRecord"Time: Tuesday 11:00 - 12:00 Location: SAS Nortvegia
Abstract:
Persistence is one of the most troublesome points in any application. Handling the mismatch between the data in its relational form and the data as developers would like to have is a non trivial task at best, and daunting and herculean at worst. Tools such as Object Relation Mappers exists to help make it easier, but they often require experts in order to use effectively. ORM does not need to be hard to use, or for the specialists alone. Active Record builds on top of the proven NHibernate object relational mapper and gives you rapid feedback, inferencing capabilities, and in general tries to do the right thing and stay out of your way. Using Active Record, persistence is not only painless, it can be fun, frictionless and boost your productivity beyond your wildest dreams. Presentation: "MonoRail: Building Maintainable & Testable Web Applications"Time: Wednesday 09:30 - 10:30 Location: SAS Nortvegia
Abstract:
Keep It Simple and Don't Repeat Yourself are two of the most important principles of building good software. MonoRail is an alternative to standard Webforms development that offers you the chance to build complex web application while maintain those core principles (and more!). By a dint of smart choices, convention over configuration and reasonable defaults, MonoRail gives you a better productivity, separation of concerns and an overall maintainable approach for web applications. Join Hammett and Ayende, Castle Project committers, in an overview of how to build real world enterprise web applications with MonoRail. |
