PDC 09 Session 1

My Notes from the first session at PDC 09. I hope to take some notes in every session so that I can continually update here.

- Sat next to a guy constantly tweeting during the keynote. I would have unfollowed him.
- Good keynote, lots of interesting stuff about VS and Windows Azure.
- Stumbled (read: limped) into the wrong session now learning about: "Software + Services Identity Roadmap Update" instead of "Future Directions for C# and Visual Basic"
- I should research STS for single sign on with all our web apps
- The head guy for MS Dynamics is about to speak (Andrew Bybee)
- Claims Authentication, interesting idea. Similar to the idea on certs. Trusted providers authenticate "claims"
- Working in Dynamics working inside outlook as well.
- There is a moth in here, California is awesome
- Spiderman quote, Andrew is a cool guy
- Sharepoint Developer now to talk about claims. Shortest person ever (Venky Veeranghavan)
- Multiple hops to different servers, you lose auth after the first hop. Claims fixes this.
- mmm slow internet
- I want to code all the time, I love coding mmm coding.
- Empty room, really neat talk though crapy abstract
- Quest software guy talking now. (Dmitry Sotnikov)
- Lots of demos.
- This is a cool technology, solves a lot of our single sign on problems.
- Quest software has a cool domain backup thing.
- Looks like you can use this with Google and Yahoo IDs as well as AD and .NET
- .NET ACS
- OpenID - used by Google, Yahoo and Soon LIVE
- Information Card system
- (Gert Drapers) Claims guy
- Relationship information for each "party" inside of AD
- use AD to get information (BRILLIANT!)
- neat, AD could be super powerful, with this claims stuff.
