HIGHLIGHT

An essential guide to building scalable cloud applications in the Azure Services Platform,

including Windows Azure, SQL Azure and .NET Services.

DESCRIPTION

Azure in Action is a fast-paced tutorial intended for architects and developers

looking to develop cloud-based applications on the Windows Azure Platform.

Written by two of Microsoft's leading Azure evangelists, it's designed both for

readers new to cloud concepts and for those familiar with cloud development

but new to Azure.

Starting with core concepts, the book explores designing and scaling front-end

and back-end services that run in the cloud, and more advanced scenarios in

Windows Azure. Later chapters introduce the rest of the Azure Services

Platform with a particular focus on SQL Azure Database.
