It's rare that you get a chance to build an applicaton the way you want to, from the ground up. If you did, what architectural choices would you make and why? Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) is a hot topic and has been described as crack for architecture addicts. This talk will look at why CQRS may be a good architectural choice for your project and how you can take advantage of the features of Azure (both Windows and SQL) in order to build a highly scalable and high performing ASP.NET MVC application.
This talk will also focus on the learning curve experienced when implementing an infrastructure choice and an architectural style that bends the curve and is on the bleeding edge of application development. This talk will feature my real-life company, BrainCredits, that is built on top of the Azure environment utilizing the CQRS architectural style.
