Windows Azure features a very powerful, yet simple deployment model. By focusing on your application and abstracting away the infrastructure details, you can deploy almost any app with minimal fuss. Watch me show you how easy this is by using a cool list sharing and management application we built called 'myTODO'. You can download the source for the app as well.

NeoGeo on building with SQL Data Services

Ryan Dunn — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 21:41:00 GMT

In this video, Ryan sits down with Marc Hoeppner, the Managing Director of NeoGeo and a Regional Director out of Germany. NeoGeo builds a media asset management system to coordinate things like versioning, searching, and storage of digital media assets called neoMediaCenter.NET.

Recently, Marc and his team integrated SQL Data Services into the product alongside the existing SQL Server backend. Marc demonstrates the seamless integration of cloud services and on-premises services provided by his product as well as talks about why he chose SQL Data Services to provide scale-free storage and query capabilities.

Marc's demo is pretty amazing - especially the CIFS implementation on top of SDS - allowing them to mount SQL Data Services as a drive in the sky.

What's new in SQL Data Services for Developers

Ryan Dunn — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 20:53:00 GMT

In this screencast, Ryan visits Jason Hunter and Jeff Currier, a couple of the lead developers on the SQL Data Services team (formerly called SQL Server Data Services) to find out what the new PDC CTP build of the SDS service brings for developers.

Kick back and watch the devs dig deep into SDS and show a few demos of the new relational features and blob support found in SQL Data Services today.

Remote Administration and Delegation in IIS7

Ryan Dunn — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 19:08:27 GMT

In this screencast, we configure our IIS7 server for remote administration and delegation. The remote administration service in IIS7 is a new and powerful feature that allows us to connect securely to our remote IIS server using a firewall-friendly SSL connection. Additionally, we can choose to use traditional Windows accounts for authentication or choose the new IIS Manager user accounts instead.

We will walk through the steps you must perform as the IIS administrator as well as the experience for a remote administrator using delegated features.

Failed Request Tracing on IIS7

Ryan Dunn — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 18:55:03 GMT

In this screencast, we see how to configure our IIS7 server for Failed Request Tracing (sometimes called FREB). Failed Request Tracing is a powerful new capability in IIS7 that allows us to easily set rules on our web applications, that once triggered will log that request to disk and pull in all the relevant trace information. This feature is immensely useful for troubleshooting running applications where attaching a debugger is impractical.

Installing PHP Applications on IIS7

Ryan Dunn — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 18:44:06 GMT

In this screencast, discover how easy it is to get PHP up and configured on your IIS7 webserver using FastCGI. The popular PHP-based blogging application, Wordpress, is used to demonstrate.

Additionally, we see how quickly and easily we can integrate a PHP app with IIS7's integrated pipeline as we convert Wordpress to use IIS7's built-in Forms Authentication.
