throw out your existing systems. Microsoft® .NET-connected

using the technology you own now.
How
to Get .NET
7 Steps to Connecting Your World of Information, People, Systems,
and Devices
What
we mean by "how to get .NET" is really how to get
your information connected using the Microsoft® .NET family
of software technologies. Moving your world of data exchange
to a new model of connectivity based on Web services can be
an incremental process. We've outlined seven steps:
- Learn
more about how Web services are changing the face
of computing and business and how Microsoft provides the
best platform for creating next-generation applications.
- Create
Web services for key business processes with business
partners and customers, using the .NET Framework and Microsoft
Visual Studio® .NET. In deciding which processes to
deliver as Web services, focus on where your business adds
value.
- Use
Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration (UDDI)
to register your Web services so other companies can find
them—thus creating new revenue streams for you. Also
use UDDI to find services you need—rather than build
everything yourself.
- Deploy
Microsoft Windows Server System™ integrated server
software, including Microsoft Windows Server™
2003. With built-in security, support for XML, and ability
to quickly scale out to meet increased demands, the Windows
Server System provides a good solution to host and deploy
Web services and other applications. Windows Server 2003,
the latest version of the Windows server family, integrates
a powerful application environment to allow for the development
of innovative Web services and business solutions that dramatically
improve process efficiency.
- Help
bring about the reality of anytime, anywhere computing by
building applications that integrate with Microsoft Windows®
and the Internet, and let people access and act on the information
they need from the device at hand. Use Windows XP Embedded
and Windows CE .NET to build the next generation of smart
mobile and small footprint devices.
- Use
vendors that have a road map for making their applications
accessible as standards-based Web services. Insist on applications,
devices, or services that play well with other technologies
and let your business benefit from the global connectivity
of the Internet.
- Get
help in building the Next Generation Internet.
Consult professionals specializing in .NET-connected software,
Windows Embedded, and mobile solutions that integrate with
your IT infrastructure. Get training to extend your skills.
