Using ECS 4 with ASP.Net

Courtesy of SitePoint, a two page tutorial — Use Amazon Web Services in ASP.NET . This article introduces the user to the general concept of a web service, covers the AWS license, caching rules, loading the WSDL into Visual Studio (the article uses the 2005 “Express” version, but the code will also work just fine in VS.Net 2003), creating a UI, dealing with response groups, use of the .Net cache and DataSet objects.

The comments added to the article include some additional information on WSDL compatibility issues. We are working with Microsoft to simplify the process of using ECS 4 with the “Express” product line.
