More than 1,000 software developers and IT professionals will meet for the three days of track sessions and in-depth technical training to build their knowledge and skills on developing secure, reliable, and scalable solutions on Microsoft. This new computing revolution will see a shift from people interacting with single devices to software serving people according to their individual preferences. Software developers are integral to this transformation and we plan to make software developer conventions, such as TechEd 2000, a platform for them to build up their knowledge and skills on the latest information technology. TechEd 2000 brings in local and international Microsoft experts for sessions of in-depth technology discussions and best practise sharing of current and forthcoming key technologies for Microsoft. NET experience affords businesses of any size the opportunity to communicate and share information seamlessly with their suppliers, partners, customers, creating rich distributed services that integrate with their current systems, their customers' applications and services, on any resource from the Internet.
NET offers an entirely new set of development tools, designed for the Web.
Developers can choose to build rich new services entirely from scratch, or to build them on top of core Microsoft. TechEd 2000 will preview Microsoft's Exchange Server 2000, the company's latest messaging and collaboration platform. In addition, TechEd 2000 will showcase Enterprise. A key component of Enterprise. NET's strategy for businesses is that it empowers developers with the tools needed to incorporate higher level strategies for large scale deployment of solutions based on Microsoft Windows operating system.
