Our meeting for the month of September will be on 9/11/2003 from 7 to 10 pm for more info please visit our website: http://www.csharpstudygroup.com

David Foderick will be speaking about Introduction to .NET Persistence - a preview of Object Spaces.

This presentation introduces you to the powerful concepts at the core of .NET persistence layers. You will see examples of coding techniques that reduce your data access code by up to 75%. Unlike ADO.NET, persistence layers enable inheritance and
polymorphism, fulfilling the promise of true object-orientation. By mapping your domain classes onto relational tables (with ORM), a persistence layer blows away the object-relational impedance mismatch. All of these benefits are the result of extracting persistence from your business objects and placing it into a persistence layer. If you are writing object-oriented enterprise applications then you don't want to miss this session.

David Foderick is an independent consultant in Southern California specializing in .NET technologies. He is a Microsoft Certified Solution Developer in .NET and has a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Minnesota.
