The document discusses using MongoDB on the Windows Azure platform. It provides an overview of Windows Azure and its application building blocks. It then discusses how MongoDB can be deployed on Windows Azure in different ways to provide high availability using replica sets or high scalability using sharding. Specific drivers and deployment options for MongoDB on both Windows Azure virtual machines and cloud services are also covered. The presentation includes demos of MongoDB deployed as both a PaaS cloud service and on IaaS virtual machines on Windows Azure. Resources for further information are provided at the end.

16. MongoDB + Windows Azure
benefits
• PaaS or IaaS deployment
• Java, PHP, Node.JS, .NET, or Python
Flexible
• Many OS options including Windows
Server, CentOS, Ubuntu, SUSE
• MongoDB’s built-in support for
horizontal scaling and sharding
Scalable
• Windows Azure’s built-in support for
responsive auto-scaling
MongoDB on Windows Azure provides all the benefits customers have
come to expect from cloud computing: elasticity, on-demand capacity,
faster time to market, and pay-for-what-you-use pricing
