Codename "Dublin" - Microsoft's Distributed Application Server

(German version below / deutsche Version weiter unten)

I did not find blog entries about this elsewhere, so here we go. Disclaimer: Nobody shared this information actively with me, and no confidential information was leaked to me, I happened to find it in public sources and derived my conclusion:

It seems that Microsoft's SOA/BPM strategy has found another codename complementing "OSLO". While OSLO focuses more on the integrated and system-wide modeling experience, the codename "DUBLIN" stands for the Distributed Application Server.

Previously the Distributed Application Server was thought to be part of the "wave of OSLO related technologies". I conclude that this means that the product roadmap is maturing.

Welcome new codename :)

 

(German version/ Deutsche Version)

Da ich sonst keine Blogeinträge hierüber gefunden habe. Diese Information wurde mir weder in irgendeiner Form aktiv zugetragen, und es wurde mir auch keine vertrauliche Information mitgeteilt, sondern ich habe dies aus öffentlich zugänglichen Quellen und dann meine eigenen Schlüsse gezogen:

Es scheint, dass die SOA/BPM-Strategie von Microsoft einen neuen Codenamen gefunden hat, der "OSLO" ergänzen soll. Während OSLO mehr auf die integrierte und systemweite Modellierungsbotschaft abzielt, steht der Codename "DUBLIN" für den Distributed Application Server.

Vorher hat man über den Distributed Application Server meist nur als Teil der Welle der OSLO-relevanten Technologien gesprochen. Ich schließe daraus, dass die Produkt-Roadmap deutlich gereift ist.

Willkommen neuer Codename :)

I see that the codename is meanwhile removed from the Microsoft source where I initially found it. :(

here the "snippet" how it was originally:

"...

This fast growing group ships and supports BizTalk Server, Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), Next generation Modeling platform "Oslo" & Distributed Application Server "Dublin".

..."

now it is just

"...
