Acknowledgments

This book is dedicated to my mother, Mrs. Raj Rani Arora, and my father, Mr. Inder Jit Arora, without whom I wouldn't be what I am today. This book would never have been complete without the support of my lovely wife, Anuradha Arora. I would also like to thank my family and friends for their encouragement throughout the process.

The Microsoft Product Team, especially Brian Harry, Buck Hodges, Aaron Bjork, Chris Patterson, Gopi Chigakkagari, Ravi Shanker, Karen Ng, Charles Sterling, and Will Smyth, have been extremely helpful in guiding the direction of this book.

I would also like to thank ALM Champs and ALM Rangers for their technical inputs and review on the book, especially Josh Garverick, Utkarsh Shigihalli, and Willy Peter Schaub.
