TechEd Slides and other news

1 minute read

First a bit of news… Today is my last day at Microsoft. I’m leaving the the mothership and headed out on a new venture. It’s been a dream for nearly 6 years, it’s been in planning for 18mo, and it starts next week! I’ll post more details on what I’m doing next week, but my rhoward@microsoft.com email address is only going to work until May 31st. My new email address is rhoward@telligentsystems.com or you can use my other email address rhoward@devadvice.com.

Hope to see you at DevTeach or TechEd Europe! …slides from TechEd US are below:

Running www.asp.net
This talk was more of a tour of how we manage and run www.asp.net. Most people are surprised to find that we serve: www.asp.net, weblogs.asp.net, blogs.msdn.com, www.dotnetnuke.com, forums.asp.net, www.aspinsiders.com all from a small cluster of 2 web servers and 1 database server.
