Modeling with"Oslo" (now SQL Server Modeling Services)
When:	Wednesday, 2/3/2010 at 6:30 PM
Where:	Micrsoft's Mountain View Center
Event Description
Microsoft project codenamed “Oslo” is now SQL Server Modeling Services, but don’t get tripped up by the name. SQL Server Modeling still contains textual and graphical modeling tools and a language for modeling data and creating domain specific languages (DSL). It is still being developed by the Connected Systems team. It is a good choice for building enterprise-level data-driven applications and it is also contains general-purpose technology for raising the level of abstraction for creating other types of systems. We’ll explore where “Oslo” has been, all of the things that SQL Server Modeling Services strives to be, consider what it means to model in the first place, and of course illustrate it with demos on the latest technology previews.
