I was wondering what “data services in the cloud” … Pablo Castro’s Mix Session, was going to be about.

Project Astoria exposes data that is exposed through the Entity Framework. So you build your EDM and then the service sits on top of htat.

It is two way… you can use HTTP PUT, POST and DELETE.

Here is a post on the ADO.NET team blog about the project Astoria, that is the web data services.

I’m in Pablo’s talk right now, but you can check out the project here  and the blog post here.

The second one is called Jasper which is for purely data driven apps. I’m looking forward to Sam Druker’s talk on this on Wednesday. Read the blog post here.
