Summary
At last, we got to the chapter devoted to data access. Here we have covered the technology that is recommended to build this access in Silverlight. Besides, we have seen how to integrate it in the MVVM architecture pattern. Are we now ready to develop a full application? There are still some important topics, such as security and automatic Unit Testing. Anyhow, we encourage you to begin codifying and playing with the technology. Go for it!
