The Windows Azure Service Bus

The services bus is arguably the most accessible, ready to use, powerful, and needed piece of cloud computing. The service bus allows clients to connect to services with great ease, across any boundary as if they were part of the same local network, and doing all that without compromising the programming model or security. The service bus acts as an equalizer between large and small companies, and is the gateway for future cloud migrations. Not only that, but the service bus offers significant advantages with security, scalability, extensibility, availability and events distribution. This session presents the service bus model, why it is such a fundamental breakthrough, suggests ways the technology can evolve and where it is heading, and what does the service bus mean for decision makers, system architects, and how it affects the very business model of the next generation applications.
