Installing SharePoint 2010 on Windows 7 (x64)
Posted by Chandana | Filed under FAQ, Links, SharePoint, TIP, Windows 7
Here, I am going to list few good resources about installing Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Server and Foundation 2010 on Windows 7 (x64) operating system. As you know we need to do some manual modification for SharePoint 2010 installation files as Windows 7 (x64) doesn’t support prerequisite auto check.

Hey, It’s a claim-based identity !
Posted by Chandana | Filed under ASP.NET, Azure, Community, Microsoft, News, Security
Actually, this is a very superior announcement. If you have very extensive experience with ASP.NET Membership and Role Management, then you must read the new way of implementing authentication and authorization in the Microsoft clouds (Ex: Azure web role). Specially difference between role based authorization with claim.
Under the P & P project, they are going to release the guide under two categories. Enterprise track and ISV track. So broadly, Microsoft wants to move our existing skills set to the cloud, but our thinking about identity management should be changed with “claim-based identity“.
