Microsoft Azureiaas

• In this context, you first describe the integration of Visual Studio with Microsoft Azure virtual machine services. Applications that create virtual machines , manage virtual machines, or remotely debug virtual machines can now be executed directly in Visual Studio.

Integration of Visual Studio with Azure VM operations

• Microsoft Azure now also supports image capture (VM capturing) for a running virtual machine, and you can use this image to create another virtual machine with the same state as the virtual machine that captures the image.

Create another virtual machine using a virtual machine image

• In managing Microsoft Azure, you can manage virtual machines on the cloud with tools such as puppet and chef, in addition to PowerShell DSC.

Microsoft Azure Virtual machines support multiple management tools

• The following presentation is intended to introduce Visual Studio integrated remote debugging, where you can directly attach a process for the virtual machine specified on Azure in Visual Studio for debugging to harden Azure and use it as your dev/test environment.

In the new Azure SDK, Visual Studio can directly attach the process of virtual machines on Azure for debugging

• This demonstration is to capture the image of the virtual machine using PowerShell and create a new virtual machine with the captured image.

Capture VM images and create VMS using PowerShell

• Next, Microsoft Azure and Puppet Labs announce a partnership where you can use Puppet Labs technology to manage virtual machines on Azure

Puppet can manage several virtual machines on Azure at the same time

Puppet Agent can be installed when creating a virtual machine on azure

Microsoft Azure Web site supports auto scaling

Microsoft Azure Web site Support staging/production

• Site applications sometimes need to run some programs in the background, or to put the time-consuming, batch-executed jobs, and so on, in the background. The WEB jobs mechanism of the Microsoft Azure Web site enables you to execute programs in the background, and you can use queue to communicate with your Web site applications.

The program can be executed in the background via web jobs

• Azure Web sites can also connect to Traffic Manager to distribute site entities of different traffic, or to distribute site traffic across regions, which is one of the service methods for scale sites.

• When you demonstrate an azure Web site, you also demonstrate the following scenario: You can return to the Visual Studio Editor (in debug state) even if you modified the CSS content in the developer tools for IE11

IE11 developer tools can be returned to the Visual Studio editor

• The BUILD/2014 developer conference has released new features for the Azure Web site. The long-awaited CDN has also been officially listed.

Microsoft Azurepaas (Mobile Services) (this service is temporarily unavailable for the Microsoft Azure platform operated by the Internet for the century)

• Mobile services allows you to focus on developing applications for a variety of mobile platform devices, allowing you to enjoy convenient services on the back-end (cloud) platform, which provides some common features of mobile applications that can be used directly through the SDK or (RESTful) API calls. If you want to customize back-end operations, you can also use. NET or Nodejs to overwrite.

The backend of a mobile service can be overwritten with. NET or Nodejs

• In terms of data storage, mobile services supports NoSQL data storage mechanisms such as MongoDB or azure-stored Table service, in addition to supporting SQL databases.

Data storage supports SQL and NoSQL

• In addition to supporting notification push services, Azure mobile Services supports multiple authentication (such as Facebook) mechanisms and now supports Active Directory, enabling businesses to use mobile services when developing enterprise applications.

Mobile services start to support Active Directory

• Second, mobile services has added the ability to support the Office 365 API, and you can develop more interesting enterprise applications through mobile services. (such as writing data to OneDrive or OneNote on the mobile service backend ...) ）

Mobile services start to support Office 365 API

• Mobile services can be used even with tools like Xamarin to develop cross-platform applications across mobile devices.

Mobile services can also be used when using Xamarin

• DocuSign describes how its iOS app can use Azure mobile services to complete authentication and data storage.

DocuSign's iOS app uses Azure mobile services

• Finally, the//BUILD/2014 Developer conference publishes new features in Azure mobile services.
