Building ASP.NET Real – time web application - Pini Dayan

What if we could write a web application that it’s clients (browsers in our case) can get notified in case of something happening in the server, like a DB row added/changed, a BL entity (from any object model you have built ) raising an event or anything you can come up with in your mind. To clarify things let me further explain by using a very simple example : Say you have a web page (aspx, html, or any other) that displays a various stocks values in a grid, these values are changing very fast and every time. what if we wish that this html grid will change itself the minute any stock value changes? let me further add an important note: We don’t want to use polling mechanism (like using ajax requests at any inteASrval using window.setTimeout)
