Introducing the AZURE SERVICES PLATFORM

Azure, a simple and graceful word, has been given the emotional significance of all other programmers since November 28, 2008. Yes, she is a big gamble of the vast Microsoft Empire.

Azure, Full azure Services Platform. The homepage is Http://www.azure.com. This is a new and very new gadget, which is rarely studied at home or abroad.

What's azure? To put it simply, Azure services platform is an Internet cloud service platform based on Microsoft's data center, providing us with a real-time operating system and a range of development, storage, data storage, hosting, and other services. To put it more simply: Azure is the legendary cloud computing, the platform for Microsoft to implement cloud computing.

The previous section is more general and inspiring. I believe many people, like me, have been hearing about "cloud computing", but never know what cloud computing is all about. The concept of "cloud computing" was hyped by the media as hot as the "Web 2.0" of the year. Finally, Azure is a gracious platform that makes it easy for us to experience cloud computing. Yes, kind. Because Azure, like almost any other Microsoft technology, has a great advantage: it's easy to get started.

For those of us who have grown accustomed to and are familiar with the various developments of Visual Studio, we can easily fall in love with Azure. The official also said: Get started Quickly Using Your Existing Skills. In other words, you do not need to learn more knowledge, you can develop a variety of cloud applications through Azure, the experience of "cloud computing."

Perhaps a few words at the end of the introduction. Indeed, I have been watching whitepaper,sdk and forum for several days to fully understand the structure and technology of Azure. Let me sum up the benefits of azure with a few words of "peasant consciousness": Using Azure, you no longer have to look around for a virtual host that supports asp.net to place Web application and Web services, because Windows Azure provides " Foggy "Hosting, more powerful than ordinary virtual hosts; you don't have to look for pirated SQL Server 200X and database servers anymore, because it provides restful data storage in SQL services to make it easy to get home; you don't have to worry about the stability of your servers anymore. , because your cloud applications are deployed on Azure, using Microsoft's infrastructure, stability and security are guaranteed by the Microsoft Empire ...

What do you think? Pretty good, huh? Haha, in fact, this is the fur of azure, I only mention the most basic and easy to understand azure some of the services. Want to get a closer look? Keep an eye on my blog, and I'll do a full research and parsing of Azure over the next few months, and make some complete apps.
