BUILDING WEB APPS WITH ASP.NET MVC AND NOSQL
Viewmy profile on SlideShare.
I’m excited to announce that I’ll be speaking at the South Sound .NET User Group [defunct link: http://www.ssdotnet.org/] on April 12th in Olympia, WA.
The topic will be:
BUILDING WEB APPS WITH ASP.NET MVC AND NOSQL
This talk guides you through building modern web applications using ASP.NET MVC and MongoDB , one of the most popular NoSQL databases.
You will learn some best practices for getting started with MVC. We’ll cover building rich-forms to accept user input. And if time permits, we might even add some client-side techniques using jQuery and MVC.
All of this will be built upon the powerful non-relational database MongoDB. We will discuss the origins of the so-called NoSQL movement and why you might choose a non-relational database over SQL Server. You’ll also see our data access layer will be built using LINQ to MongoDB.
Of course, you won’t be in for a night of PowerPoint. This talk is a series of interactive demos usingVisual Studio 11, Windows 8, and C#.
I hope to see you there! There is a chance I’ll have some prizes from DevelopMentor [defunct link: http://www.develop.com/] to hand out while I’m there too.
Cheers,
@mkennedy
