I recently presented at Dev Connections in Las Vegas - a few of my favorite WCF-related topics including routing, performance and scalability, and federated security of course! This post contains links to the latest code samples that I demonstrated in the session.

VWC303: Building a WCF Router for Your Applications

• I wrote a few articles for MSDN earlier this year that might be helpful:

• http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc546553.aspx
• My latest routing code is here:

VWC305: Practical Scenarios for Federated Security

• I wrote several articles describing my utilities for pre-Geneva federation with WCF:
• http://www.theserverside.net/tt/articles/showarticle.tss?id=ClaimsBasedSecurityModel
• http://www.theserverside.net/tt/articles/showarticle.tss?id=ClaimsBasedSecurityModel2
• I have two articles to be published in MSDN Magazine related to Geneva. See December and January issues. These are also posted online but I don't have a link yet.
• The code from my book includes my pre-Geneva federated security samples.

• My Geneva samples are posted here:
• http://www.dasblonde.net/downloads/GenevaFrameworkWCFClaimsBasedSamples_CS.zip
• I will have more Geneva samples to post in a few weeks. I am working on updating my pre-Geneva claims-based samples to use Geneva Framework and in the process will provide updates to my utilities that will help you migrate to Geneva Framework more seamlessly. You can expect a blog post on this specifically.

VWC304: Load Balancing and Scaling Your WCF Services

• For my ASP.NET Pro column on WCF, I wrote two articles for the December and January issues - the first on load balancing and scalability issues, the second on dealing with SSL load balancing routers such as F5 / BigIP. You can view the most recent 3 issues at any time here:

• Sample code from the talk includes the following:
