Modern ASP.NET

COURSE OUTLINE:

Description

In this course, you will learn about Microsoft's latest web development framework. This course focuses on Microsoft's One ASP.NET strategy for a unified framework for architecting web applications. You will learn about model-view-controller (MVC) for building HTML-based applications. You'll also learn about OWIN and Katana for providing a common HTTP hosting infrastructure, as well as ASP.NET Identity for securing user identities. Web API for building modern web services is also covered in class. You will also learn more about SignalR for providing real-time push notifications to client applications. Come and explore Microsoft's compelling server-side stack for developing modern web applications and services.

Note: You are required to bring your own laptop.

Securing JEE Web Services

In addition to teaching basic programming skills, this course examines sound processes and practices that apply to the entire software development lifecycle.

In this course, you will thoroughly examine best practices for defensively coding JEE services, including XML processing. You will repeatedly attack and then defend various assets associated with fully functional web services. This hands-on approach drives home the mechanics of how to secure JEE web services in the most practical of terms.

Mastering JEE Design Patterns

Technologies such as JPA and EJB3, as well as frameworks such as Spring, web services, and rich interfaces, have significantly impacted previous generations of design patterns. Many of these technologies were heavily influenced by the very problems that previous design patterns addressed. While the basic patterns still ring true, the more advanced patterns have evolved into more robust solutions for secure, stable and scalable enterprise applications.

In this is a lab-intensive Java/JEE design patterns training course, you will explore the many sophisticated JEE-oriented design patterns and how to use these patterns to develop solid, robust, and reusable JEE applications. Working in a hands-on environment, you will explore key patterns in each of the different JEE layers and how they are used most effectively in building robust, reusable JEE applications. This course combines the use of hands-on coding labs with several ‘mini-projects’ to be completed throughout the training to get you using and reviewing the Patterns in a practical manner.

You will be led through an extended project whose solution includes the application of the various patterns as well as several cross-cutting patterns addressing issues such as security, transactions, and auditing. Throughout the course you will explore the Crosscutting, Presentation Tier, Business Tier, and Integration Tier pattern categories. You will compare and contrast these patterns and explore the advantages and disadvantages of using certain patterns for explicit development functions in the JEE framework.

Mastering Python Programming with Advanced Topics

In this course, you will learn the basics of writing and running Python scripts as well as more advanced features such as file operations, regular expressions, working with binary data, and using the extensive functionality of Python modules. Extra emphasis is placed on features unique to Python, such as tuples, array slices, and output formatting. After completing this course, you will immediately be able to use Python to complete tasks in the real world.
