For those into WCF, Juval Löwy’s 4th edition of Programming WCF Services is out, including coverage of the Azure Service Fabric. To those of us who have taken classes with IDesign, this is an important book that helps make a challenging yet powerful framework approachable. Many teams realize all too late that some of the infrastructure features they really need, like transactions, reliability, and queuing, are already baked into WCF, and with robust support for security and extensibility.
