Windows Azure POC (Proof Of Concept) News, Examples

Some companies participated at the event and proposed a couple of ideas/architectures which have been merged in a single, layered, multi-platform application with the help of Roberto:
  • a web site, hosted on Windows Azure (WebRole)
    • back-end based on Windows Azure Storage and/or a web service
  • a web service hosted on Windows Azure
    • back-end based on Windows Azure Storage
    • active collaboration with a WorkerRole service
  • a web service hosted on an on-premise IIS server
    • back-end based on Windows Azure Storage and/or a web service
    • active collaboration with a WorkerRole service on Windows Azure
  • a desktop / embedded client application, which works with cloud data and features
    • directly on Windows Azure (Storage / Queue / SQLAzure) and/or via a web service
  • n-tier architecture (data access, business logic, UI, services)
  • unit testing
Software architecture has been deeply analyzed (even tough it was a two-day workshop only) and the solution has been designed following the best practices and guidelines. The key concept was that adopting a good n-tier, modular, loosely-coupled and testable architecture, it is relatively easy to extend system functionalities or handle new technologies/platforms following the natural IT evolution.
