Typical use cases

These are a few scenarios for each technology that demonstrate its best fit in a solution.

Windows Server AppFabric hosting and monitoring

The hosting and monitoring enhancements will cover a wide range of use cases with most uses not utilizing all the features. By far, the most common use case is that this is a robust, scalable, and supportable host for WCF and WF applications.

In addition to the host itself, we also have a management tool for supporting the host. This would be a part of any hosting solution. Monitoring can be configured at different levels based on requirements. In addition, custom monitoring of specific data elements inside the solutions can be configured and persisted to a database.

Some examples include hosting a .NET 4.0 Workflow service for signing up a new customer to a website, tracking the number of orders that get processed through the system per day, and viewing the number of applications in a workflow process that are in a specific state.
