Summer 2011 London EPiServer Meetup programme

02 Jul 2011    

Our third London EPiServer Meetup is almost upon us – (this Thursday 7th July). We’ve got a theme of ‘Integration’ this time and three of our members have kindly volunteered to talk:

  • Paul Dunstone (from our hosts Rufus) – who will be talking about an EPiServer / SmartLogic integration that allowed for a rich and automated content classification. Paul previously blogged about this, but this will provide a great opportunity to understand more of the technical details.

  • Raghavendra Bangalore-Govindaiah (aka Rags) – who will be presenting an overview of a COMET based pushed real-time data feed integration with an EPiServer site. For those of you who have never heard of COMET before, this should be interesting as COMET introduces a new model of working across the web. Rather than the traditional request/response cycle it uses long held http requests to allow the server to PUSH content updates directly to client web browsers.

  • Mark Everard -I’ll be giving an overview of NuGet, Microsoft’s package management tool for ASP.NET / Visual Studio, including a look at how to create your own packages and integrate the creation process with your project’s build script using MSBuild.

It again should be a great night and I hope to see you a lot of you there.
