 February 16th Meeting Minimize

Dive into Windows Azure

Note that this meeting has been MOVED to a new date, February 16th, due to bad weather expected to hit Asheville on February 9th.

In this presentation, we’ll take a look at Windows Azure – Microsoft’s Cloud Computing platform. We’ll explore what it is, and how to get started. We’ll cover key features of the platform, and specifically dive into migrating existing web applications and making use of Azure Storage, using the Worldmaps http://www.myworldmaps.net application as an example. We’ll discuss specifics of Azure VMs including pricing, and also look at monitoring Azure applications for health and performance. With a full day of Azure coming to the MSDN Events in a few weeks, this session will give you a sneak peek at what’s coming.”
