In this presentation from Brian Hitney, we’ll take a look at Windows Azure – Microsoft’s Cloud Computing platform. To make things interesting, I’ll assume some basic familiarity with the Azure platform – I’ll target only about 10 minutes for general overview, and then we’ll dive into various topics mostly related to the Azure Platform itself (compute, and working with blobs/tables/queues), tweaking roles and monitoring, WCF and role communication, SQL Azure, designing for scale and pricing considerations, and if time permits, we might be able to introduce some AppFabric concepts like the Service Bus and identity federation.

I’d like to encourage the meeting to be an open format so the meeting progresses more organically, and if necessary, we’ll cut some topics and follow up with them at another meeting.
