Windows Azure Compute Development, service hosting, & management environment .NET, Java PHP, Python, Ruby, native code (C/C++, Win32, etc.) ASP.NET providers, FastCGI, memcached, MySQL, Tomcat Full-trust – supports standard languages and APIs Secure certificate store Management API’s, and logging and diagnostics systems Multiple roles – Web, Worker, Virtual Machine (VHD) Multiple VM sizes 1.6 GHz CPU x64, 1.75GB RAM, 100Mbps network, 250GB volatile storage Small (1X), Medium (2X), Large (4X), X-Large (8X) In-place rolling upgrades, organized by upgrade domains Walk each upgrade domain one at a time Compute

88. Windows Azure Diagnostics Configurable trace, performance counter, Windows event log, IIS log & file buffering Local data buffering quota management Query & modify from the cloud and from the desktop per role instance Transfer to storage scheduled & on-demand Filter by data type, verbosity & time range Compute

89. Windows Azure Storage Rich data abstractions – tables, blobs, queues, drives, CDN Capacity (100TB), throughput (100MB/sec), transactions (1K req/sec) High accessibility Supports geo-location Language & platform agnostic REST APIs URL: http://<account>.<store>.core.windows.net Client libraries for .NET, Java, PHP, etc. High durability – data is replicated 3 times within a cluster, and (Feb 2010) across datacenters High scalability – data is automatically partitioned and load balanced across servers Storage Storage

90. Windows Azure Table Storage Designed for structured data, not relational data Data definition is part of the application A Table is a set of Entities (records) An Entity is a set of Properties (fields) No fixed schema Each property is stored as a <name, typed value> pair Two entities within the same table can have different properties No schema is enforced Table Storage
