How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
Most of the attention of cloud computing is focused on leveraging the elasticity and self-provisioning power of virtual machines in the "cloud," but what about your data? Windows Azure has several options for hosting your data - Azure tables, Azure blobs,
and SQL Azure - what do you use when? And what if you have data privacy or governance requirements, and you don't think you're ready to trust your data in someone else's hands - do you write off the cloud completely? (Hint: no!)
In this session Jim O'Neil, Developer Evangelist, takes you on a tour of the various data options and covers the capabilities as well as the 'sweet spot' for your data storage options. If you'd prefer to jump right to your section of interest, fast forward the screencast based on the outline below:
[00:50] - The storage spectrum
[01:40] - Azure storage overview
[02:27] - Blobs
[03:30] - Demo: configuring your Azure storage account
[05:30] - Demo: accessing Blob storage
[06:23] - Tables
[07:23] - Demo: viewing Table storage in VS 2010
[08:02] - Demo: using the StorageClient API
[08:57] - Queues
[09:59] - Drives
[10:41] - Azure Storage vs. relational storage
[11:06] - SQL Azure
[12:32] - Demo: accessing a SQL Azure Database
[14:38] - Cloud storage concerns
[15:00] - WCF Data Services
[15:54] - Demo: creating a WCF Data Service
