I am presenting a class session at SPTechCon Boston on Friday – 10/22/2010 – from 2:30 – 3:45 PM in the Molly Pitcher Rm of the Hyatt Regency Cambridge, where SPTechCon is taking place.

The class details are as follows:

808 – Architecting a Blended SharePoint 2010 / ASP.NET Solution

SharePoint is beginning to be used more widely as a development platform for a wide variety of ASP.NET applications. SharePoint architects, developers and IT professionals are being called on to design, architect, develop and provide a stable environment for a growing base of SharePoint site collections blended with an increasing amount of custom code. This session will show how to incorporate functionality that comes prepackaged in SharePoint such as wikis, blogs, lists, document management, user authentication and authorization with core ASP.NET application functionality. It will expand upon design and architecture concepts for setting up ASP.NET applications within a SharePoint farm. We will cover approaches to solution development and deployment, performance considerations for blended solutions, packaging recommendations and monitoring tools. We will go in-depth into the packaging and feature designers in Visual Studio 2010 for architecture and deployment considerations, and we will show techniques for upgrading an ASP.NET application to work within SharePoint, allowing you to leverage the power of SharePoint alongside the rapid development possibilities inherent in ASP.NET application development. Some familiarity with .NET development and SharePoint is required.

The materials for this class can be found in the following SkyDrive folder – will include PowerPoint slides and all code demos.
