March 2008 Meeting of Israel Visual Basic User Group (IVBUG)

Sunday, March 2, 2008

Sharepoint is big. Very big. It is actually made of two different downloads (WSS & MOSS), a large set of reusable components and an SDK to accompany it. And Dan Amiga, VP of R&D for Semantinet, is just the one to explain to us how to take advantage of it. This talk is about understanding - from a developer's perspective - the architecture, internals and usages of Sharepoint. It's not just for the Sharepoint developer. It's also for developers that want to integrate powerful components to their custom applications, including: search, single sign-on, workflows with office and InfoPath, connecting to legacy systems, implementing fast visual provisioning of sites and views, flexible authorization systems, change log, document management & much more. This will be a session with a lot of demos and plenty of real-world examples of architectures and how developers are basing their solutions on sharepoint both as a web front end and as an application server. As always, we'll have our special "Hatzilu" session at our meeting. So please come prepared to discuss your most frustrating problems (or at least some of them!) and to share some of your own techniques and solutions that you have found useful in your applications.

Please confirm your attendance.See you there !!
