What will be demonstrated?
Dave will show how using Visio Services you can bring that extra wow factor to your data using data bound Diagrams, and how you can combine various data sources on a single Visio Diagram to create a Silverlight Dashboard simply and easily and how to combine that dashboard with other SharePoint elements.
He will focus on how to create a data Connection Class to talk to a Custom Data source. The Point? That way you can plug in multiple data sources from anywhere to create your dashboard. He will talk about authentication but most of about how easy it is to create a web page which brings your data to life!
