CodeCast Episode 61: RIA Services with Silverlight and more

In this episode of CodeCast, co-hosts Ken Levy, Markus Egger, and Gary Short discuss Microsoft RIA Services. RIA (Rich Internet Applications). Microsoft describes RIA Services as simplifying the traditional n-tier application pattern by bringing together the ASP.NET and Silverlight platforms. RIA Services provides a pattern to write application logic that runs on the mid-tier and controls access to data for queries, changes and custom operations. It also provides end-to-end support for common tasks such as data validation, authentication and roles by integrating with Silverlight components on the client and ASP.NET on the mid-tier.
