Indigo Programming Model

Don Box has given us another glimpse of Indigo.

He is talking about untyped and typed implementation interfaces and Indigo channels. The presented programming model is one of the most sophisticated I’ve ever seen concerning web service development. I can’t wait to get my hands on Indigo. Although Don Box does not vote for the untyped or typed approach, I hope Clemens Vasters will change his mind on angle brackets, now. I think that I’m going to blog on the benefits of untyped messages/implementations, again pretty soon.

Another great thing about Indigo is the channel concept. As demonstrated by Don Box channels could be used to implement SOA intermediaries within a consistent programming model. Because channels can be created at runtime, Indigo allows for a very flexible intermediary chaining. Great!
