Resources for What and how NOT to use ASP.NET AJAX?

It's very easy to put an UpdatePanel and have AJAX working. I am looking for resources on how to best use ASP.NET AJAX for maximum performance and security. Resources for best practices, guidance, design patterns, gotachas, pitfalls when using ASP.NET AJAX.

I am not looking for books on ASP.NET AJAX. Amazon lists those.

From the maximum performance angle, check out ASP.NET Ajax Under-the-hood Secrets, on Codeproject.com.

Subtitled "Performance tips and hard-core tricks that change core runtimes, not for the faint-hearted" it's about "the advantages and disadvantages of Batch calls, Ajax call timeouts, browser call jam problems, ASP.NET 2.0's bug in web service response caching, and so on."

It's a little over my head, but it might be relevant to what you're looking for. Since it's written by Omar Al Zabir, the guy who did Pageflakes, I think we can assume that it's solid advice.

I really like Dave Ward's stuff on using jQuery and Asp.Net Ajax in unison. Especially his article on Why Asp.Net Ajax Update Panels are dangerous.

Dino Esposito's two part article on MSDN Magazine is worth a read, AJAX Application Architecture Part 1 and Part 2. Covers some interesting topics including:

  • Optimization Techniques for Partial Rendering
  • Weighing Partial Rendering
  • Flavors of Services
  • JSON Versus XML
  • Security Concerns
