Wireless synchronisation program - visual-studio

hi I have been looking for help with not much luck till i arrived here.
I want to develop an SQL server database and an application which will act as a server to allow a pda to send data to and wirelessly synchronise and information to sendAs it uses mobile application I would like to utilise it over a WIFI network.Any information would be very apreciated. I will be using visual studio to develop as it has SQL SERVER in built.
Thanks

If you use SQLCE on the PDA there are two technologies that could help.
SQL Merge Replication
ADO.NET Synchronisation Services

Microsoft Sync Framework v2.0 CTP1 is fairly new (Oct '08 release from MS) You can get more information about it, and the latest releases from the Microsoft Sync Framework page.
"Microsoft Sync Framework is a
comprehensive synchronization platform
that enables collaboration and offline
access for applications, services and
devices. It features technologies and
tools that enable roaming, sharing,
and taking data offline. Using
Microsoft Sync Framework, developers
can build sync ecosystems that
integrate any application, with any
data from any store using any protocol
over any network."

Skype For Business Server 2019 - Better way to Integrate the Chat Bots with server 2019

I am trying to integrate A Chat Bot Service with A client who uses the Skype For Business Server 2019. On Microsoft Docs Page, I found that UCWA 2.0 exposes SFB Server 2015 instant messaging (IM) and presence capabilities. Could anyone please confirm whether this holds good for SFB Server 2019?
Do we have any better way to integrate the Bots with SFB Server 2019 other than UCWA 2.0 (As I came across the docs that mentioned UCWA having IM limitations and scaling issues)?
From this doc, Bot Framework also deprecated the support for Skype or business channel.
Please provide any information you have regarding this. Thanks in advance.
I suspect that UCWA will scale just fine, I know of some projects for pretty large organisations that have used it.
As an alternative you could look at UCMA 6.0 (which is more feature complete than UCWA), this is the SFB 2019 release and whilst I haven't seen any explicit documentation for this version I very much doubt it has changed much since UCMA 5.0 as the Microsoft strategy at the time of release was focused on Teams.
There’s 3rd party software available that can help with this, check out MindLink. Their API supports various versions of SfB server and I believe 2019 is covered too. You can apply throttling and other management capabilities so it is built to scale - it could be more for the enterprise, then again I don’t know what your project is.

Can i use netoffice package to automate outlook application from a web application. Is there any disadvantages

Can i use netoffice package to automate outlook application from a web application. I need to open outlook window to create meetings and send from a web application.Is there any disadvantages in using netoffice for the same?
Nope. It is not a supported way of automating Office applications.
Microsoft does not currently recommend, and does not support, Automation of Microsoft Office applications from any unattended, non-interactive client application or component (including ASP, ASP.NET, DCOM, and NT Services), because Office may exhibit unstable behavior and/or deadlock when Office is run in this environment.
If you are building a solution that runs in a server-side context, you should try to use components that have been made safe for unattended execution. Or, you should try to find alternatives that allow at least part of the code to run client-side. If you use an Office application from a server-side solution, the application will lack many of the necessary capabilities to run successfully. Additionally, you will be taking risks with the stability of your overall solution.
Read more about that in the Considerations for server-side Automation of Office article.
If you deal with Exchange profiles you may consider using EWS, see Get started with EWS Managed API client applications for more information.

What use as Database for developing asp.net vNext + Entity Framework 7 on OSX

I'm trying to set up my environment for developing asp.net vNext + Entity Framework 7 on my OSX.
Apparently, there is no provider for MySQL neither PostgreSQL yet. Thus, what can be used as database for developing on OSX?
What you folks have been doing for develop asp.net vNext on OSX? Or should I set up a Windows VM?
Any suggestion?
I've got even an open issue on Github on this topic.
Cheers
We will have a PostgreSQL and/or MySQL provider for EF7 (either delivered by our team or we'll work with a provider writer to help them build it). Work hasn't started on them yet though.
We haven't been focusing on EF7 on Mono at this stage, so there are likely some rough edges. We do have some folks who have successfully used it to connect to a remote SQL Server though.
To date, no RDBMS is supported on OSX for EF7.
Since (LocalDB)\v11.0 doesn't allow remote access and run on OSX/LNX, I've setup a SQLServer2012 Express and SQLServer 2012 Standard Edition hosted on a local Windows VM to establish a remote DB connection from my Visual Studio Code project.
From Visual Studio Code running on OSX, EF7 fails to successfully connect and interact with those local SQL Servers. In this instance, I was using the ASP.NET 5 Music Store example project: GitHub Source
Oh, and with all the SSL requirements, AZURE SQL Server is out of the question as an option.
Microsoft is heading in the right direction, we'll get there, but you're dealing with bleeding edge EF7 at the moment which is a complete reengineering from EF6.

Is it right to host my application in windows azure?

Friends. I am new to windows azure concept. Just i want to knw whether we can host my asp.net application developed in visual studio 2010 with sql server 2008 or i need to develop my application in windows azure environment?
ii). Whether they provide both hosting and storage?
if it so what are the steps to implement it as a beginner?
Please can any one suggest a clear idea about it.
This is a pretty generic question. To get started, I strongly suggest downloading the Windows Azure Training Kit which will guide you through all the basics through advanced topics.
You can absolutely run asp.net apps and SQL Server apps in Windows Azure. You'll need to think about things like statelessness, scaling, and other things that might be different from an on-premises solution. You should see these topics discussed in the training kit.
Last week, Windows Azure Web Sites was introduced - this is an extremely simple way to deploy an asp.net site to Windows Azure.
As far as "is it right to host my application in windows Azure" - that type of question doesn't fit here, as it will simply open the floor for debate.

What is Windows Azure? [closed]

Closed. This question needs to be more focused. It is not currently accepting answers.

Announced today. Descriptions so far are confusing. Let's put together a good starting point for understanding Windows Azure.
Strongly related to What is a "Cloud OS"?, but not enough to warrant closing.
Description
The Azure™ Services Platform (Azure) is an internet-scale cloud services platform hosted in Microsoft data centers, which provides an operating system and a set of developer services that can be used individually or together. Azure’s flexible and interoperable platform can be used to build new applications to run from the cloud or enhance existing applications with cloud-based capabilities. Its open architecture gives developers the choice to build web applications, applications running on connected devices, PCs, servers, or hybrid solutions offering the best of online and on-premises.
Azure reduces the need for up-front technology purchases, and it enables developers to quickly and easily create applications running in the cloud by using their existing skills with the Microsoft Visual Studio development environment and the Microsoft .NET Framework. In addition to managed code languages supported by .NET, Azure will support more programming languages and development environments in the near future. Azure simplifies maintaining and operating applications by providing on-demand compute and storage to host, scale, and manage web and connected applications. Infrastructure management is automated with a platform that is designed for high availability and dynamic scaling to match usage needs with the option of a pay-as-you-go pricing model. Azure provides an open, standards-based and interoperable environment with support for multiple internet protocols, including HTTP, REST, SOAP, and XML.
Features
Key components of the Azure Services Platform include the following:
Windows Azure for service hosting and management, low-level scalable storage, computation and networking
Microsoft SQL Services for a wide range of database services and reporting
Microsoft .NET Services which are service-based implementations of familiar .NET Framework concepts such as workflow and access control
Live Services for a consistent way for users to store, share and synchronize documents, photos, files and information across their PCs, phones, PC applications and Web sites
Microsoft SharePoint Services and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Services for business content, collaboration and rapid solution development in the cloud.
It's time sharing. Once again we reinvent something. ;) And who predicted mainframes would die.
This seems to be Microsoft's main page:
Azure Services Platform
In simple words:
A Microsoft services-based operating environment (also called a cloud computing platform) that will let developers build and host services on Microsoft's infrastructure.
Windows Azure is an open platform that support both Microsoft and non-Microsoft languages and environments.
According to the official Microsoft Windows Azure Web site, developers can build their applications and services, developers using Visual Studio 2008 as well as popular standards and protocols including SOAP, REST, and XML.
Azure is a cloud hosting, if we have a web app application we can hosting on it.
Azure also support various script languages (C#, PHP, Phyton etc).
Today Azure also support for wordpress and various databases.
We can subscribe azure by period or "pay as you go".
Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, deploying, and managing applications and services through a global network of Microsoft-managed data centers. It provides software as a service, platform as a service and infrastructure as a service and supports many different programming languages, tools and frameworks, including both Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems.Please refer below link to understand Azure-
