Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Architects: Developing Service-Oriented Systems Bill Gibson Senior Program Manager Enterprise Tools Microsoft Corporation

Topics Challenges Model-driven development and deployment Web services design Synchronizing design and code Deployment validation Extensibility Looking forward

Distributed System Challenges IT Operations Development Solution Architect Infrastructure Architect

Solution Architect Infrastructure Architect Distributed System Challenges IT Operations Development How do I design systems that comply with operational policies that will successfully deploy? How do I communicate application requirements to operations? How do I communicate design to developers? How do I keep design synchronized with code?

Solution Architect Infrastructure Architect Distributed System Challenges IT Operations Shared destiny but no common architectural language Development How do I describe configuration and operational policies? How do I communicate these to development How can development verify that systems are compliant - before trying to deploy them?

Strategic Initiatives Dynamic Systems Initiative Improve design, development, deployment and management of distributed systems Software Factories Initiative Model-driven development Domain-specific languages Integrated design tools Content: models, patterns, guidance Lifecycle management tools

Key Architectural Themes Executable Design Increase value of design Improve collaboration between architects and developers Synchronize design with code Deployable Design Increase predictability of deployment Improve collaboration between development and operations Validate system designs against a model of the target environment
