About the Book

Part 1 begins by 1) defining the term "cloud computing" and contrasting it with application hosting, 2) comparing Azure to earlier (competitive) horizontal implementations, the Google App Engine, and others, hosted .NET-centric business applications, and 3) examining issues that .NET developers and IT departments face in moving from on-premise to cloud-based applications/projects, such as security privacy, regulatory compliance (Sarbanes-Oxley, SEC, etc.), backup and recovery, asset cataloging and management, and other common technical concerns. Part I then moves on to describe all major Azure Platform components, comparing them with competitor's related offerings for capability and programming ease.
Part 2 covers basic programming for individual Azure components: Storage (tables, blobs and queues), SQL Data Services (relational vs. tuple-based structured storage), and .NET Services (Access Control, Workflow, and Service Bus).
Part 3 covers the more advanced programming challenges of creating useful projects that combine cloud storage with Web applications or services. (Part 3 anticipates that the Azure team will have a substantially larger repertoire of sample projects available by the estimated chapter submittal schedule.)
The book's companion website will include complete, finished applications capable of being uploaded to a Windows Azure project and run in production.
