West Wind Technologies Consulting
Services
West Wind Technologies can provide you with Web consulting and training services
that can help get your new Web and Distributed application development projects off the ground quickly
with services ranging from developer training in Web technologies, to
specific mentoring in the startup phases of your projects as well as
high end services in performance and scalability tuning of your
applications. We specialize in ASP.Net, C# and Visual FoxPro
development, especially in areas of component development, application
architecture and frameworks.
Training and consulting is provided primarily through Rick Strahl, well
known author and architect of the popular Web Connection framework for
Visual FoxPro. Rick is an internationally recognized expert on Web
application development and a long time Microsoft MVP (C# and Visual
FoxPro).
We can provide the following services:
Customized Web application development training
We can provide you with customized training for your Web development
needs. Whether it's getting your development staff up to speed on
current Web development technologies or whether you need
specialized mentoring to get your first Web application off the ground
we can help.
Web Connection training of all levels
As the developers of the Web Connection framework we're uniquely suited
to provide with personalized training of Web Connection's functionality
and feature set and how to utilize it efficiently in your application
setting. We can provide project startup services and one on one
development mentoring to get one or more of your developers up to speed
quickly.
.Net training
Getting started with .Net and need a jump start to get up and
running quicker and take advantage of best practices? We can help with
migration needs and strategy as well as provide services for setting up
a solid foundation to build .Net applications quickly.
.Net Custom component and tool development
With the .Net Framework so new there are lots of things to learn
and... lots of things that are also missing. We specialize in filling
needs that aren't addressed by the .Net framework with speciality tool
development.
Distributed application experts
The time has come for business integration services to take off on the
Web. With all the talk of technologies like XML, SOAP, Web Services,
BizTalk and a host of related standards surprisingly few companies are
taking advantage of these technologies at this time. With the right
tools and an understanding of the basic principles it's easy to take
advantage of these technologies today. We can help you make sense of the
alphabet soup and put it to use today easily.
Expertise for performance, stability and scalability tuning
Once you've built your Web application you also need to address
additional issues to handle large volumes on your Web site and provide
the reliability necessary to support mission critical applications. Our
insight can help you fine tune your applications and help you with
deploying an architecture that performs and scales well to almost any
load.
Application Development
Although our primary focus is on tool development, training and mentoring services we also
handle Web application development depending on our availability. Our
main development focus is on distributed Web applications using .Net or
Visual FoxPro with Web Connection. Please check for availability and rates.
