2. Agenda • What’s in PaaS • Architecture Guidance • Azure toolkits for devices • Demo • Resource • Q&A

3. PaaS Supports • Storage • SQL Azure/Blob/Table/Queue • Hosted Services • Caching Service • Service Bus • Access Control Service • Azure Connect • Traffic Manager

4. Storage • SQL Azure • Multitenant model • Upto 150GB • Federation support • SQL Azure Copy • Data Sync • DMV Support for performance • Web based Query interface • IP based security • UTC based timestamp • Blob • Table • Queue

5. PaaS services • Webrole • host your website or web application • supports ssl,hostheader and port config • Multiple sites of size over 1 G need work around due to application drive size limitation • Startup task to setup and legacy requirements • worker role • background process (e.g., windows service) • VM role • Running copy of your vhd image (IaaS) • Startup task to setup and legacy requirements • Startup Task • Runs in elevated privileges • Simple, background or foreground type of tasks • Session State: • Sticky session not supported • use Appfabric cache as your session state provider

6. PaaS services • Appfabriccaching: • SaaSbased caching provider • Close compatible with Windows fabric caching • Operating System: • OS 1.x will follow WS08 RTM (http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?p1=12925) • OS 2.x will follow WS08 R2 (http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?p1=14134 • Active Directory • Authorization/Authentication • Federation login [windows live] • Single Sign-on • WIF • Access Control Service

7. PaaS services • Service Bus • Virtual Networks • Connect • Traffic Manager • Search: • Lucene or Solr

10. WA Toolkits for Devices • Easier for device developers to use Windows Azure • Targets • Windows Phone • iOS (iPhone & iPad) • Android • Toolkits include • Native libraries • Project templates • MVC3/SQL Azure support • Cloud ready packages/configuration utility for Mac • Samples • Documentation

11. What’s Running in Windows Azure? • Services • Authentication • Proxy requests to SQL Azure • Proxy requests to WA storage • Generate SASs • Push notification • Portal

12. How it works? • Client sends request to proxy • Proxy makes call against Storage • Storage returns a response • Proxy returns response to device (2) (3) (4) Web Role (1)

13. How it works (Shared access signature)? • Client makes request of Web Role for SAS • Web Role sends client SAS • Client makes request • Client gets response (4) (3) (2) Web Role (1)

14. Notification: Different Services • Windows Phone • Microsoft Push Notification Service(MPNS) • iOS • Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) • Android • Cloud to Device Messaging (C2DM)

15. MPNS • PN allows your cloud services to have certain level of interaction with end-user when your app is not running • Players: Web application or cloud services, Windows Phone, MPNS(dedicated, resilient, and persistent channel for pushing notifications to a mobile device) • Types • Raw • Tile • Toast

16. Resource • Windows Phone • http://watwp.codeplex.com • iOS • https://github.com/microsoft-dpe • Android • https://github.com/microsoft-dpe • Cloud Ready Packages • https://github.com/microsoft-dpe/cloudreadypackages
