They launched on November 5th (before release at the PDC) and had grown Outback's fan base to over 450k in a matter of days via an innovative Facebook offer for a free "Blooming Onion" promotion.  In this session from PDC 09, Jim Zimmerman from Thuzi talks about how they leveraged the capabilities of Windows Azure to provide the scalable web, messaging, and storage infrastructure that are an absolute requirement to meet the harsh demands of today’s viral social network outbreaks. The components of the solution include ASP.NET MVC framework to  render a “view” using Facebook Markup Language ("FBML") , the Facebook Developer Toolkit, Windows Azure, SQL Azure  and Visual Studio 2010. en Mon, 20 May 2013 00:12:05 GMT Mon, 20 May 2013 00:12:05 GMT Rev9
