Facebook GUI PSD

Cloud computing
Megan Keller: Another big trend that we are hearing a lot about at this conference is cloud computing. People aren’t necessarily adopting, but they’re talking about adopting. They’re talking about the requirements—what do they need—and their concerns. Do you know anyone who is using cloud computing?
Brent Ozar: It’s one of those deals where I think people saw how rapidly virtualization got adopted when the bugs were ironed out. It really caught everybody by surprise when originally the hard-core shops went in, adopted it, and went under extreme pain when they chose to adopt those things early, but now everybody’s doing it and they’re seeing extreme cost benefits improvements there. Cloud, I think people look at that and say, “I bet that this is the next virtualization and it’s not ready yet, but I want to be one of the people who is there when it is ready. If it saves as much money as virtualization did, I want to be right there because I’m under so much cost pressure.” I don’t know anybody who’s moved stuff from on-premises to the cloud, but I know a lot of developers who say, “I want to build something, but I don’t have an enterprise behind me, what’s the easiest way to get started?”.

DataBinder (increase performance) →
DataBinder.Eval method saves you from writing complex expressions, but using this method does impose a performance penalty on your code, because all the work it does is late-bound. If we want the fastest possible code, you can replace calls to DataBinder.Eval with explicit casts.
