16. Windows Azure™ is a cloud operating system that provides developers with on-demand compute and storage to host, scale, and manage web applications on the internet through Microsoft® datacenters.

17. AUTOMATED APPLICATION MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL Fabric: The collection of servers 8 VMs per server Each VM runs customized Hypervisor Windows Server 2008 Fabric Controller performs service management You tell it what to do— it figures out how Automatically scale up, scale down, update or roll application back to a previous version Fabric Controler Fabric Controler

18. MASSIVE SCALABILITY Scale “out” – not up – by replicating worker instances as needed. Allow applications to scale user and compute processing independently. Two instance types: Web Role & Worker Role Windows Azure applications are built with web role instances, worker role instances, or a combination of both. Each instance runs on its own VM (virtual machine), replicated as needed

26. WEB ROLE WORKER ROLE Similar to a Web Page Handles incoming HTTP/HTTPS requests Develop with Microsoft and non-Microsoft tools: ASP.NET, WCF, other.NET tools Java, PHP, etc. Similar to a "batch job" or Windows service Initiates their own requests for data or tasks from the queue Can listen for non http/https Incoming traffic (f.i. smtp)

27. public class WorkerRole : RoleEntryPoint { public override void Run() { // This is a sample worker implementation. Replace with your logic. Trace.WriteLine("WorkerRole1 entry point called", "Information"); while (true) { YOUR LOGIC! Thread.Sleep(10000); Trace.WriteLine("Working", "Information"); } public override bool OnStart() { // Set the maximum number of concurrent connections ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit = 12; DiagnosticMonitor.Start("DiagnosticsConnectionString"); // For information on handling configuration changes // see the MSDN topic at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=166357.

30. EntityTableAccount myaccount Provides Massively Scalable Structured Storage Table can have billions of entities (rows) and TBs of data customers Name =… Email = … Name =… Email = … Name =… Email = … Name =… Email = … pictures Picture ID =… Date = … Picture ID =… Date = … Picture ID =… Date = … Picture ID =… Date = …

31. Each entity can have up to 255 properties Mandatory Properties for every entity PartitionKey & RowKey Uniquely identifies an entity Defines the sort order Timestamp Optimistic Concurrency No fixed schema for rest of properties Each property is stored as a pair No schema stored for a table Properties can be the standard.NET types String, binary, bool, DateTime, GUID, int, int64, and double

32. Entity Locality Entities in the same partition will be stored together Efficient querying and cache locality Entity Group Transactions Atomically perform multiple Insert/Update/Delete over entities in same partition in a single transaction Table Scalability We monitor the usage patterns of partitions A partition contains all entities in a Table with the same partition key value Automatically load balance partitions Each partition can be served by a different storage node Scale to meet the traffic needs of your table

33. Table Services are really good for highly efficiently storing and retrieving large amount of structured (not relational) data.

43. You cannot control the physical resources of SQL Azure For example, you cannot specify the physical hard drive or file group where a database or index will reside. Transact-SQL statements with parameters that allows to specify file groups or physical file paths are to be considered partially supported. see Transact-SQL Support (SQL Azure Database)Transact-SQL Support (SQL Azure Database) No Analysis Services, Replication, Reporting Services, and Service Broker. Most data type are supported but: hierarchyid, geography, geometry, and user-defined CLR data types see Data Types (SQL Azure Database)Data Types (SQL Azure Database)
