Architecting for the cloud means understanding and embracing the fundamental aspects of it.  Commodity hardware at scale requires a scale out vs. scale up approach.  Commodity hardware fails and very few services provide 100% uptime SLAs.  This session, delivered by Ulrich Homann and…

This week on MSDN Radio, John Stallo and Jay Schmelzer from the Microsoft Visual Studio team will talk about LightSwitch—a new tool that allows you to easily and quickly build high-quality business applications for the desktop, the web, and the cloud. This MSDN Radio is hosted by  Mithun…

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…

I've been using the evolution of water supply as an analogy for the evolution of computing platforms for some time now. As part of an internal event this month, we had this animation produced and I thought it was worth sharing.
