Workshop Overview

This workshop is an introduction to cloud computing and specifically Microsoft’s public cloud offering in Windows Azure. Windows Azure has been described by Microsoft as an operating system for “the cloud”. In this workshop, you explore this new cloud operating system and learn how to write, deploy and monitor .NET applications in Azure. This workshop is designed for .NET developers with Web application experience that are exploring developing new applications or porting existing applications to Windows Azure.

Prerequisites

Experience with Visual Studio 2008 or better is required. Knowledge and experience in a .NET language (C# or VB) is required.
