Market_Desc: Microsoft .NET Developers and managers; SQL Server developers and managers; IT managers Special Features: · The author writes extensively in print and online about the Azure Services Platform and .NET development. He is using these platforms to aggressively promote the book.· He's very active in the Microsoft community--contributing editor to Visual Studio Magazine and columnist for Fawcette Technical online publications.· The Azure Services Platform marks Microsoft's entry into the the most anticipated and talked about new development in the computer industry---cloud computing. 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.
