Who This Book Is For

If you are a .NET developer who is looking for a simpler way to build services, this is the book for you. It will show you how to write fast, maintainable APIs that are a pleasure to use and maintain starting from the database to the client and everything in-between.

In Detail

Building web services is a complex task as every language and framework has its own architecture, which is not easy to analyze. ServiceStack makes it easy to create web services and build applications.

This book covers a wide range of topics from simple development and initial setup using the ServiceStack framework to more advanced concepts such as integration with other popular .NET frameworks. It will show you how to build your services and will also enable you to ensure your web API's quality with step-by-step recipes that show you powerful unit testing and integration testing patterns. You will also learn how to access your SQL database with speed and simplicity using ServiceStack's object-relational mapping framework, OrmLite.
