Microsoft Distributed Application Server aka Dublin

Mary-Jo shares some of her insight into some of the news around Oslo that may be announced around PDC 08. What interests me is that in my last post I speculated that the Process Server could be some sort of service bus implementation, which seems to be spot on. Yes “Dublin” is the code name for Microsoft’s Distributed Application Server, but hey is that not just a fancy name for NServiceBus or Mass Transit.

I guess when PDC rolls around in a few weeks and more news around what Oslo is and when the bits roll out to developers and architects to see, touch, feel and smell what the CSD and Dev Division guys have come up with is when the real questions need to be asked. All well and good to speculate, I just hope that some parts of the Oslo effort will touch on some of my desires.

UPDATE: Mike Taulty has posted links to a whitepaper and a screencast that explain more details about .net 4.0
