For developers and architects, the Cloud is a flexible and familiar environment to easily create and host applications that can have nearly infinite scale. For IT staff, the Cloud means on-demand computing with the right infrastructure to host, scale, and manage all your services with ease and speed. For your organization, it means being always available and being global while cutting down on maintenance and operational overhead costs by paying for a service.

But at the end of the day, what does that all mean? How do you transition from the way things are today to a Cloud model? In this episode of AlignIT Manager Tech Talk, Ruth Morton and Jonathan Rozenblit sit down with Joel Varty, Director of Research and Development at Agility CMS in Toronto, Ontario, and talk about moving to the Cloud. The discussion focuses around the business problems Windows Azure can solve, the opportunities that can arise, and what it takes to transition developers, architects, and IT staff from traditional application development to the Cloud. Joel shares how he worked with his team to get up to speed on Cloud development and their strategy for moving applications to the Cloud.

Resources

  • Cloud Optimization - Expanding Capabilities, while Aligning Computing and Business Needs
    For many applications, the cloud is an ideal solution. For others, moving parts of an application's architecture to the cloud is preferable. To determine which applications are likely to derive the greatest benefit from cloud computing, organizations will want to explore a number of considerations.
  • Delivering a New Kind of Business Value Using the Cloud
    Cloud computing with Windows Azure means that your developers can deliver a new kind of value to your business. Scott Guthrie, corporate vice president of Microsoft's Server and Tools division, talks about the new world of development and how to get started building Cloud applications today.
  • Strategy and Training as Pre-Requisites to Cloud Development
    "Developing for the Cloud" seems to be the phrase these days. You see and read about it everywhere, and as such, many will just jump right in. To ensure the success of your organization's journey to the Cloud, you need to take a step back and tackle two very important things first - your cloud strategy and training plans.

There are plenty of business drivers for enterprises to consider a move the
cloud, but at the same time there are plenty of reasons as well why these
enterprises will not be able to move their entire stack in the short term. At
least for the next ten years hybrid systems will be the defacto standard way of
implementing cloud based systems in the corporate world. In this session I will
show you around the different services, offered by the Windows Azure Platform,
that ensure a seamless integration between cloud and on-premises resources.

This eliminates the need for services to start when the system starts, or for services to poll or actively wait for an event; a service can start when it is needed, instead of starting automatically whether or not there is work to do. Examples of predefined trigger events include arrival of a device of a specified device interface class or availability of a particular firewall port. A service can also register for a custom trigger event generated by an Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) provider.

In this screencast, Kate Gregory (@gregcons) provides an overview of trigger started services on Windows 7 via the Windows API Code Pack, a source code library that can be used to access some features of Windows 7 and Windows Vista from managed code.

Update (March 24, 2011 - 11 PM): The Windows Trigger Start Service Recipe for Managed Code is now available to download.

It has an international portfolio of customers and specializes in mobile applications development, enterprise portal solutions, business intelligence, and cloud computing. Eastbanc Technologies used Microsoft’s Windows Azure platform to develop the Public Transit Data Community (PTDC), a Windows Azure-based solution that aggregates static and real-time data from many mass transit operators in SQL Azure, exposes it in a variety of common formats (e.g. OData,  KML), and enables independent developers to build innovative transportation applications on a variety of platforms and devices.

In this interview with Vlad Vinogradsky, several members of the EastBanc Technologies team - Wolf Ruzicka (CEO), Evgeny Popov (Microsoft Practice Lead), and Vadim  Zagorodniy (Project Lead) – told the story behind the project, explained the reasons for hosting the solution in the Windows Azure, described solution architecture, and showed a few awesome applications (including a free Windows Phone 7application) for commuters they have developed using the data provided by the solution.

For example, it enables an application to perform data recovery and cleanup operations such as capturing application state and releasing resources before termination. It also allows developers to specify that WER should automatically restart an application that it has terminated.
