Handle Data More Productively

Visual Studio 2008 significantly improves the way developers handle data. Traditionally, developers have manipulated data differently depending on where the data resides and how the user connects to it. With the introduction of Language Integrated Query (LINQ) and various other data access improvements, developers can now manage data using a consistent programmatic approach and perform data access with new data design surfaces. ADO.NET integrates with LINQ and supports an occasionally connected design pattern to simplify the development tasks for those application types.

These new capabilities include:

·         Programming the model and design experience around language/data access unification

o   LINQ aims to reduce complexity for developers and help boost their productivity through a set of extensions to the C# and Visual Basic programming languages as well as the Microsoft .NET Framework, which provide integrated querying for objects, databases, and XML data. Using LINQ, developers will be able to write queries natively in C# or Visual Basic, without having to use specialized languages, such as SQL and XPath.

·         Simplify the construction of data driven Web sites with LINQ to SQL

o   With deep support for incorporating .NET language integrated query (LINQ to SQL) into ASP.NET Web applications, Visual Studio makes the creation of data-driven Web sites more productive, more efficient and more fun. Developers can use familiar programming semantics to access all data sources in a unified and uniform manner.

Top Open Source Web-Based Project Management Software

This is an user contributed article. Project management software is not just for managing software based project. It can be used for variety of other tasks too. The web-based software must provide tools for planning, organizing and managing resources to achieve project goals and objectives. A web-based project management software can be accessed through an intranet or WAN / LAN using a web browser. You don't have to install any other software on the system. The software can be easy of use with access control features (multi-user). I use project management software for all of our projects (for e.g. building a new cluster farm) for issue / bug-tracking, calender, gantt charts, email notification and much more. Obviously I'm not the only user, the following open source software is used by some of the biggest research organizations and companies world wild. For example, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory uses track software or open source project such as lighttpd / phpbb use re

My organization went through the approval process of supporting the .NET Framework 2.0 in production. Do we need to go through the same process all over again for the .NET Framework 3.0? Do I need to do any application compatibility testing for my .NET Framework 2.0 applications? Because the .NET Framework 3.0 only adds new components to the .NET Framework 2.0 without changing any of the components released in the .NET Framework 2.0, the applications you've built on the .NET Framework 2.0 will not be affected. You don’t need to do any additional testing for your .NET Framework 2.0 applications when you install the .NET Framework 3.0.
