Microsoft Windows Server AppFebric (Dublin and Velocity) is a bundle of integrated technologies which makes easier to develope, extend and manage the web and composite application that runs on IIS.
If you are searching for the Windows Azure platform AppFabric, which helps developers connect apps and services between Windows Azure and on-premises deployments, see the Windows Azure site.
What is Dublin?
Dublin enriches Windows Server to give enhanced hosting and management capabilities for WCF and WF services. Dublin also adds service management extensions to the hosting features of Internet Information Services (IIS) and Windows Activation Service (WAS), and the run-time components and services of the .NET Framework 4. Dublin addresses the challenges of hosting WCF- and WF-based applications by making it easier to deploy, configure, and manage applications.
Typically in Service Oriented Architecture people are building the service for the different operations and exposes these services to the consumer to consume. Since WCF and WF released; the deployment, monitoring and scaling these services never been an easy task. Some times to consuming these service it self a trouble making task. With the help of Dublin we can perform these tasks almost effortless. Dublin can be easily introduced through IIS management console using the Dublin module of Windows Power Shell.
What is Velocity?
Velocity is a highly scalable in-memory caching mechanism using which one can improve the performance of the application with all types of data. For any application one can leverage the Velocity rather then writing new caching schema. Velocity comes with Dublin; the same setup programme installs Velocity and Dublin.
