Windows Azure Roles

• Web Role– A web role is used for web application programming in

ASP.NET or PHP• Worker Role

– A worker role is used for performing work on behalf of the web role.

– In addition to .NET languages, Worker Roles may be written in Ruby or Java.

– Worker Roles are used to improve scalability by increasing parallelism and asynchronicity

– Often used for background work

Storage

• Blobs – Large Data Store• Tables – Very Fast / Scalable Storage• Queues – Background work processing• Drives – NTFS Formatted Page Blobs • SQL Azure – Relational SQL in the Cloud

– Core DB Functionality– Management– SQL Data Sync

Windows Azure AppFabric(Formerly known as .NET Services)

• Service Bus• Access Control Service• Management

Compute Storage Management ManagementRelational data Connectivity Access control

Windows Azure Cloud Fabric(Fabric Controller)

• Multiple virtual instances• Easy provision of applications• Detect failures• Spin up new instances to replace the failed ones• How many instances and what role they will play• Load balances and DNS• Elasticity of the service… scaling up/down number of

instances

Windows Azure DevFabric(Cloud in a box)

• Simulated “Cloud Experience” for Development– Routes cloud requests to local machine– Simulates data storage with local SQL server database– Azure SQL simulated with local SQL Server database
