submitted by Jemm 4 days, 14 hours ago

weblogs.asp.net — "I had a WCF service where I wanted to be able to support over a hundred concurrent users, and while most of the service methods had small payloads which returned quickly, the startup sequence needed to pull down 200,000 records.

When we get the latest version, we also get all required files to run in partial trust." read more...

Combining ASP.NET MVC and new ASP.NET Charting Controls

submitted by Jemm 1 month, 13 days ago

weblogs.asp.net — "As ScottGu recently posted on his blog, Microsoft have recently released a set of charting components. Several people followed up with comments on his post asking whether it was possible to use them with ASP.NET MVC.

This post outlines the steps you'll need to take to get it up and running." read more...
