You know the little watch window that you get in Visual Studio...well, in the scope of the software development world, this is what is currently in my watch window:
- Microsoft Project Codename "Velocity" - Distributed In-Memory Application Cache Platform
This one is huge for .NET. All things considered, it is arriving late to the party (Reference memcached and jcs) but it is worth watching how it all plays out. I am looking forward to trying out the optimistic/pessimistic concurrency models and other cache configurations. So while like the rest of the folks who are excited about Silverlight 2 Beta 2 this week, it is Velocity that is going in the watch window.
As a side note, this now also means there is another answer to BrainSharpener #10. Depending on the scenario, that could either be a good or bad thing :)
