1. Case Studies www.azure.com/evidence
2. Outback offered a free Bloomin’ Onion coupon to the first 500,000 guests to sign up as Outback fans on the Outback Facebook Fan Page. Siemens used the Windows Azure platform to deliver software packages from a central Internet-based storage location to thousands of devices. TicketDirect wanted to improve its ability to sell tickets quickly and better manage the highly variable peak loads commonly seen when big events go on sale. Volvo has now successfully delivered an exciting, secure online gaming experience that scaled to meet demand and had a rapid time to market, all at a fraction of the previously expected costs.
3. To scale up its algorithm to match more resumes and job listings, OCCMundial.com needed to increase computing capacity without the costs of expanding its IT infrastructure. eBay’s page for iPad listings (http://ipad.ebay.com) is hosted on the public Windows Azure platform. Peak loads at launch. The City Of Miami: constrained by long hardware-procurement cycles, the city needed a cost-effective, scalable solution that would maximize its available resources. Providing public access to vast amounts of Mars-related exploration images
4. Eliminate its dependence on expensive airport service-desk technology, so they equipped roving agents with mobile devices. Using AppFabric Service Bus, they were able to securely open up corporate applications to mobile devices at airports all over Europe. Bing Maps took advantage of the Windows Azure Content Delivery Network, to cache and deliver content at strategically placed, global nodes. By bringing content closer to customers, Bing Maps improved performance by 80 percent Paying too much for Server provisioning Needed Juke Box approach where applications can be turned on/off on demand
5. Azure triggers short lived public “social media” apps with a high load delivering data to many devices variable peak loads, need to scale on demand background processing power avoiding long procurement cycles for hardware vast amount of public data storage integration with mobile devices delivering content on a global scale high performance computing extending solutions to a cloud business model reducing cost of hardware and OS maintenance turning applications on/off on demand
6. The Windows Azure platform is a flexible cloud–computing platform that lets you focus on solving business problems and addressing customer needs.
7. Virtual Network Storage Compute Access Control Service Bus Caching Reporting Database Data Sync
8. Azure Development Work in Visual Studio (or Eclipse) Runs ASP.NET, classic ASP, Java, Ruby, Phyton, PHP Local SDK with Azure emulator
9. Datacenters Quincy, WA Chicago, IL San Antonio, TX Dublin, Ireland Generation 4 DCs
10. Azure Fabric Controller Service Definition Fabric Controller The Fabric Controller communicates with every server within the Fabric. Interacts with a “Fabric Agent” on each machine Monitors every VM, application and instance Service Management is performed by the Fabric Controller Performs load balancing, check pointing and recovery Fabric X        X   X 
11. Azure Architecture Windows Azure Service SQL Data Your Service Worker Service NL B Worker Role SQL Internet SQL Your Storage SQL Queues Web Site (ASPX, ASMX, WCF) Web Site (ASPX, ASMX, WCF) Web Role (ASPX, WCF) Tables Blobs
12. Azure Hosted Services WebRole Hosting ASP.NET webpages and/or WCF Services. Handles incoming HTTP/HTTPS requests. Public, Internet faced. Has access to Storage Services. WorkerRole Code running in background, processing jobs. ‘Hidden’ processing power. Similar to a batch job or Windows service. Handles messages from a queue. Has access to Storage Services.
13. Azure VMRole Ability to upload your own customized WS2008R2 Enterprise images Full control over the OS image, install whatever you want on it. You can remote desktop into the OS Target scenarios Need to use apps/libraries with no unattended setup 32 bits apps Change registry settings Scale out ! Instances are behind loadbalancer, one public IP per service No durability of OS image on hardware failure With VM Role, the customer creates & maintains the OS Paying model = Paying model of current web/workerrole Uses differencing disks to upload deltas to image
14. Configuring Virtual Machines Size
15. Azure Storage Non SQL data Unlimited storage 4 types Tables: no fixed schema, no relations Blobs: large objects, have metadata attributes, MIME type aware Queues: assync communication to workerrole Drives: NTFS volume mounted to roles Accessible through a HTTP/REST API
16. Azure Virtual Network Network policy managed through portal Web/Worker VM Role Azure Connect Gateway Azure Connect Gateway IPV6 address IPV6 address On Premise Machine SQL Server IPV6 address Azure Connect Gateway
17. AppFabric Access Control identity providers Azure ACS rules Facebook ID Claims authorization Redirect login ADFS2 WebApp
18. Azure Content Delivery Network user Azure Datacenter Service (webrole, workerrole) requests blob Blob storage CDN Node Is blob cached here ? blob
19. Azure Content Delivery Network user Azure Datacenter Service (webrole, workerrole) another request Blob storage CDN Node blob
20. Azure AppFabric Caching Role Instance 1 Role Instance 2 On Premise app Read/Write data Read/Write data Read/Write data Caching
21. SQL Azure Relational DB in the Cloud Based on SQL 2008 R2 Accessible from every ADO.NET client SQL 2008 R2 Management Studio High-availability and fault tolerance No physical administration is required Use existing knowledge in T-SQL development Scale databases up or down based on business needs (between 1GB and 50GB)
22. SQL Azure admin SQL Azure Server My DB (1 GB) My DB (50 GB) Master DB users and roles users and roles logins firewall internal restricted IP ranges Azure Services (webrole,workerrole) Anybody code “near” code “far”
23. SQL Azure admin SQL Azure Server My DB (50 GB) My DB (1 GB) Master DB stored on 3 replicas stored on 3 replicas stored on 3 replicas firewall internal restricted IP ranges Azure Services (webrole,workerrole) Anybody code “near” code “far”
24. Azure AppFabric Service Bus Connect applications and services in the cloud or on-premises, expose apps and services through firewalls and NAT gateways. Service Bus provides the familiar Enterprise Service Bus application pattern, while solving some of the hard issues that arise when implementing this pattern across network, security, and organizational boundaries, at Internet-scale. Acts as relay between WCF services and clients Based on SOAP and REST
