What is Windows Azure?

Azure and SilverlightRich Internet Applications on the Cloud

Windows Azure is the foundation of Microsoft’s Cloud Computing Platform It is the “Operating System for the Cloud” It is designed for utility computing It is highly scalable and highly available



Platform as a Service

Windows Azure is an internet-scale cloud services platform hosted in Microsoft data centers around the world, proving a simple, reliable and

powerful platform for the creation of web applications and services.

What is Silverlight?




Silverlight is Media Rich RIA Rich Web Applications Cross-Platform

Runs on Windows, Mac OS, Windows, Linux, Windows Phone 7

Engaging, Highly Interactive, Rich User Experience Safe, Secure, Scalable Provides Out-Of-Browser support

Save content locally for disconnected scenarios & update whenever connection found

Great Media Support 1080p true HD-quality Video Smooth Streaming

Adaptive streaming for live or on-demand video Based upon changing bandwidth and CPU conditions



Silverlight is Media Rich RIA Cross-Platform & Browser RIA Framework Silverlight XAML vocabulary published under

Open Specification Promise (OSP) Silverlight Control Pack released under OSI approved MS-PL license

on Codeplex Growing Tooling Support from Partners

Captaris Inc., Telerik Inc., ComponentOne LLC, Infragistics, Software FX Inc., Intersoft Solutions Corp., Developer Express Inc., K2, Gizmox, RemObjects Software LLC, etc.

Moonlight effort to support Linux & Firefox Expanded .NET Framework Language Support

The Developer Experience

It’s Easy to build Silverlight Applications


How useful is Silverlight?

A recent example NBCOlympics.com

Social Features Picture-In-Picture Real-Time Commentary Statistics

& Player Information Up to 1.5 Mbit bitrates



A recent example NBCOlympics.com Statistics

3,500 hours of live and on-demand Olympic coverage

60 million unique visitors 6 million users daily 8 million Silverlight

downloads per day Delivered 250TB of data

on Aug 17 alone Average user spent 27 minutes per visit watching videos

NOS (Netherlands)

“A NOS representative reported that they were able to

serve 100,000 concurrent users using Silverlightand 40 Windows Media Servers…”

- Web Designer Magazine (a Dutch publication), Aug 2008



Beyond Media - Rich, Interactive and Social User Experience CNN captures “The Moment”

With 613 Photos, (over 400 report photos and 200 CNN photos), this Photo Synth truly captures the moment on January 20, 2009, when Barack Obama became President.

“CNN's 'The Moment' Obama Photosynthis super nifty”http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2009/01/cnns-the-moment.html



Beyond the Web

a plethora of different devicesthat we interact with on a daily basis

new user interaction models such as multi-touch and optical tagging

data synchronized across all your devices



Data Synchronized across all your devices



Data Synchronized across all your devices

Ultimately, It’s Still the User Experience…that’s what really matters, right?

ASP.NET Web Application Load Balanced Web Roles

Cloud Application Patterns

Hosted Web Application


ASP.NET Web Application with background Workers

Front-end – Load Balanced Web Roles Back-end – Load Balanced Worker Roles Front-end and back-end communicate

through Storage Front-end queues work items Back-end executes work items

Separately configurable instance counts of Front-end and Back-end instances


Hosted Web Application with Workers


WCF Web Service hosted in an IIS hosted ASP.NET Web application Load Balanced Web Roles


Hosted Web Service


WCF Web Service with background Workers Front-end – Load Balanced Web Roles Back-end – Load Balanced Worker Roles Front-end and back-end communicate

through Storage Front-end queues work items Back-end executes work items

Separately configurable instance counts of Front-end and Back-end instances


Hosted Web Service with Workers


Cloud Extended Enterprise Application Enterprise hosted on-premise application which makes use of cloud services for

storage, communication, synchronization, security, etc.

REST or .NET Code Windows Azure Storage SQL Azure Windows Azure AppFabric Services Windows Live Services


Hybrid Enterprise Cloud Applications



Multi-Enterprise Business Application (MEBA) Cloud-hosted application used by

multiple organizations Front-end

– Load Balanced Web Roles for Web Application/Services

Back-end – Load Balanced Worker Roles

Can leverage any kind of Cloud Storage Security by Access Control Service

or Traditional Membership Providers Must have acute awareness of roles

and permissions of organizations and personnel


Load Balanced Worker Roles Jobs to the Worker Roles can be assigned

by any application (cloud-hosted or on-premise)

Worker Roles execute the job items and provide results using Cloud Storage or direct communication
