Learn how to create real-time web applications using SignalR and how to scale these applications in a real-world environment.
Building real-time web applications was a web developer’s “holy grail” for too long. Even with arrival of the long awaited WebSockets protocol, developers still need to support a wide range of legacy browsers using a variety of technics. Scaling out real-time web applications is also not trivial as data integrity must be maintained across servers. SignalR allow .NET developers to overcome these challenges using a clean and coherent API. SignalR also comes with a set of client-side libraries supporting a verity of client environments including JavaScript, .NET, WinRT and Windows Phone 8. In this session we will learn how to create real-time web applications using SignalR and how to scale these applications in a real-world environment.
