  1. CON 307Developing Manageable WCF Services Chris Peiris | Avanade www.chrispeiris.com Rory Primrose | Avanade www.neovolve.com

  2. Agenda • Business Value of WCF • What does a CTO expect from an integration technology? • Unified Programming Model • Why manage Services? Business value? • Built in WCF Management Features • Configuration based - SvcConfigEditor • Integrating Windows Management Instrumentation • Tracing and Logging - SvcTraceViewer • Performance Monitoring • Summary and Questions

  3. CTO Key Performance Indicators • Dependable (secure & preserve integrity) • Responsive • Predictable • Measure Productivity • Enterprise Models • Zachman • TOGAF • MS Motion • Three Key Takeaways • Unified Programming model • WCF become the unified communication mechanism • ROI is delivered by a well managed efficient system – NOT the cutting edge snazzy marketing material

  4. Unified Programming Model

  5. Message Based Point-to-Point The SOA Journey

  6. Microsoft & SOA • Provides the best integrated, cost effective, interoperable, and scalable SOA Platform • Windows Servers, BizTalk Server, SQL Server, .NET Framework, Visual Studio .NET, CSF,… • Connected Systems Division • BizTalk Server • Business Activity Monitoring • Windows Communication Foundation • WS-* compliant • Windows Workflow Foundation • How do we communicate with each other?

  7. What Does WCF offer to the Enterprise • Where are we? • Do we have unified MS offering to compliment MS Server technology? • Can WCF be the answer? • MQ = WCF • EAI Message Broker = Biztalk V.Next • Mapping done by Biztalk Mapper • Unified API to invoke ALL windows server technology • Use Adapters (i.e. SAP, Oracle) for non MS products

  8. HUMAN Conceptualization Conception Birth Childhood Teen Angst Productive Years The Golden Years SOFTWARE Design/Arch Development Deployment Configuration Troubleshooting Monitoring Reconfiguration The Life And Times… The Fun/Short Part The Hard/Long (useful) Part ROI

  9. The Challenge • We are putting basic instrumentation, control mechanisms, diagnostics “in the box” with WCF • Much of what you’ve had to code in the past is now done for you in the framework • You’ll get manageable Web Services with WCF even if you don’t code for manageability • You can raise the bar for manageability! • Now that you don’t need to write timer code to determine latency, throughput, error rates… • What can you do with that same investment?

  10. What Does WCF Offer? • Configuration driven • Implementing logging and tracing • Using performance counters • WCF out of the box • Create custom counters • WMI objects. • Out of the box • Creating specified WMI objects • Leveraging new .NET 3.0 utilities • Configuration Editor • Trace Viewer

  11. Coding a WCF Service - The Basics • Service Contract • Contracts are interfaces • Service • Implements the contract to provide business logic for the server endpoint • Service instancing • Host • Hosts the service to make it available to clients • Self-hosted services • Client • Implements a UI to consume the service for the client endpoint

  12. Agenda • Business Value of WCF • What does a CTO expect from an integration technology? • Unified Programming Model • Why manage Services? Business value? • Built in WCF Management Features • Configuration based - SvcConfigEditor • Integrating Windows Management Instrumentation • Tracing and Logging - SvcTraceViewer • Performance Monitoring • Summary and Questions

  13. Method #1 - The Configuration System • What goes in code • Business logic • What goes in config • Contracts • Endpoints • Bindings • Behaviors • Diagnostics

  14. # 1 – The Configuration System

  15. Agenda • Business Value of WCF • What does a CTO expect from an integration technology? • Unified Programming Model • Why manage Services? Business value? • Built in WCF Management Features • Configuration based - SvcConfigEditor • Integrating Windows Management Instrumentation • Tracing and Logging - SvcTraceViewer • Performance Monitoring • Summary and Questions

  16. Method #2 - WMI Objects • Allows a service to be queried by WMI • Remote management for running services • Remote monitoring for running services

  17. #2 – WMI Objects

  18. Agenda • Business Value of WCF • What does a CTO expect from an integration technology? • Unified Programming Model • Why manage Services? Business value? • Built in WCF Management Features • Configuration based - SvcConfigEditor • Integrating Windows Management Instrumentation • Tracing and Logging - SvcTraceViewer • Performance Monitoring • Summary and Questions

  19. Method #3 - Using Tracing and Message Logging • Tracing • Using SvcTraceViewer.exe • WCF tracing support • Message Logging • Logging custom messages

  20. #3 - Tracing and Message Logging

  21. Agenda • Business Value of WCF • What does a CTO expect from an integration technology? • Unified Programming Model • Why manage Services? Business value? • Built in WCF Management Features • Configuration based - SvcConfigEditor • Integrating Windows Management Instrumentation • Tracing and Logging - SvcTraceViewer • Performance Monitoring • Summary and Questions

  22. Method #4 - Performance Counters • WCF includes inbuilt counters that require no coding effort • Offers comprehensive monitoring of services currently running • Custom performance counter support with minimal code • Remote performance monitoring

  23. #4 –Performance Counters

  24. Agenda • Business Value of WCF • What does a CTO expect from an integration technology? • Unified Programming Model • Why manage Services? Business value? • Built in WCF Management Features • Configuration based - SvcConfigEditor • Integrating Windows Management Instrumentation • Tracing and Logging - SvcTraceViewer • Performance Monitoring • Summary and Questions

  25. WCF Benefits from Managing Services • Improves Custom Development • Improves Enterprise Integration • Improves Information Management/Collaboration • Improves Business Intelligence • Protects Business Strategy • Increases agility • Decreases costs • Increases process transparency

  26. Summary • WCF Apps are manageable out of the box • Deployment flexibility • SLA monitoring • End to end diagnostics • You can make them even better • Create Management Endpoints • Add instrumentation • Build custom UI for admins
