下一代技术平台-Oslo-- .NET FX 4.0, Biztalk 6, System Center 5,Visual Stuido 10.....
What is “Oslo”? What are the product and technology components that will be delivered?
“Oslo” is the latest in a series of long term investments in SOA and BPM technologies, enabling the development of distributed applications. At the conference, we will disclose the targeted investment areas and the associated priorities. These product investments are part of a multi-release investment that will help advance the Dynamic IT initiative – specifically in the areas of ‘services-enabled’ and ‘model-driven’.
There are five primary areas of investment targeted by “Oslo” development efforts:
Framework: The .NET Framework “4” release will make further investments in model-driven development as part of our Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and Workflow Foundation (WF) technologies. This will be the logical successor to the .NET Framework 3.5 release happening later this calendar year.
Server: This release will continue to evolve our BizTalk family of products as the distributed platform for highly scalable SOA and BPM solutions. BizTalk Server “6” will build deeply on top of both WCF and WF as its core foundation, and deliver the capability to develop, manage and deploy composite applications.
Services: Extending the early BizTalk Services incubation (currently available at labs.biztalk.net), the BizTalk Services “1” release will deliver a commercial release of hosted services that enable cross-organizational composite application scenarios. This includes expanded capabilities around hosted messaging, identity and workflow capabilities.
Tools: These investments will advance the application lifecycle management capabilities of Visual Studio Team System and provide support for an expanded range of roles. Furthermore, Visual Studio “10” will provide deep support for model-driven design and deployment of composite applications.
Repository: There will also be investments aligning the metadata repositories across the Server and Tools product sets. System Center “5”, Visual Studio “10” and BizTalk Server “6” will utilize a common repository technology for managing, versioning, and deploying models.
The Vision: Significantly simplify the effort required to design, build, deploy and manage distributed applications within and across organizations.
从Oslo的Vision来看,这将是一个比较长期和穿越多个产品的技术组合和演进，也再次表明.NET技术和微软的产品从纵向开始交织，试图形成1+1>2的技术力量，更加切实的解决技术和平台如何穿越企业的流程、人员和组织。
另外这也将是一个非常不错的和最领先的视图，可以从中看到微软和.NET产品最新发展的计划和策略。
