A Look at Microsoft’s “Oslo” Modeling Platform
Microsoft’s “Oslo” project is a major initiative that represents a wave of technologies aimed at making it easier to construct, deploy and manage distributed applications and services. It is an evolution of SOA technologies, encompassing Windows Communications Foundation, the next version of .NET, BizTalk Server, Windows Workflow Foundation, Visual Studio and more. Using those technologies as a starting point and building on them, Oslo also introduces modeling tools and a repository that allow the creation of role-based tools that can be used throughout an application’s lifecycle.
The impact Oslo will have on the developer community using Microsoft tools cannot be understated. The goal of "Oslo" is to provide a 10x productivity gain by making model-driven applications mainstream with domain-specific models, languages, and tools. In this session we will take an early look at the architecture, some of the capabilities and tools that Oslo provides and enables.
