C# for PowerBuilder developers: a gentle introduction 
——————————————————–
With the introduction of the new breakthrough C# Web API, PB developers will have to learn at least the very basis of C#. This session introduces the C# language in simple steps. A number of code snippets are discussed, showing how everything is wrapped in classes and what are the common differences with PB syntax. The session outlines pitfalls and caveats that are usually encountered while moving the first steps into C# Web API.

PowerServer 2020 sneak peek 
——————————————————–
This tutorial overviews the upcoming PowerServer 2020 Web and Mobile. It walks through all new REST features with code examples showing OAuth 2.0, DW retrieves & updates against REST Web API, handling of complex JSON resultsets, merge multiple DWs for faster network performance. It also shows how to perform encryption, digital signing, and encoding of data for secure transfer between the PowerServer client and the server. It additionally presents how to compress and decompress filesystem objects or data streams in many formats.

C# Web Services Development with SnapDevelop 
——————————————————–
The new PB C# Web API feature offers the perfect scenario for supplementing large PowerServer-enabled applications with full fledged .NET Core and C# REST API. This tutorial will show step-by-step how to use C# DataStore, implement service and controller, and make CRUD operations from PowerBuilder or PowerServer using their REST features.

C# REST API and PowerServer 2020 integration 
——————————————————–
PowerServer is a well-established technology for moving your PB applications to n-tier architectures. With little effort, PowerScript goes Web and Mobile. However the target application leverages Javascript: complex business logic may need robust and scalable server-side components. This sessions describe possible scenarios where PowerServer and C# Web API can coexist and make applications to get the best from both architectures.
