Intro to cloud computing and Azure

And in a non-Cloud view, there are inefficiencies in addressing those issues IT CAPACITY “Under-supply“ of capacities Barrier for innovations Allocated IT-capacities “Waste“ of capacities Load Forecast Fixed cost of IT-capacities Actual Load TIME

However, in a Cloud View Allocated IT capacities Load Forecast IT CAPACITY No “under-supply“ Reduction of initial investments Reduction of “over-supply“ Possible reduction of IT -capacities in case of reduced load Actual Load Time

Load Patterns “Growing Fast“ Compute “On and Off “ Inactivity Period Average Usage Average Time On & off workloads (e. g. batch job) Over provisioned capacity is wasted Time to market can be cumbersome Successful services needs to grow/scale Keeping up w/ growth is big IT challenge Cannot provision hardware fast enough “Predictable Bursting“ Compute “Unpredictable Bursting“ Average Usage Time Unexpected/unplanned peak in demand Sudden spike impacts performance Can’t over provision for extreme cases Time Services with micro seasonality trends Peaks due to periodic increased demand IT complexity and wasted capacity

Anatomy of a Windows Azure Cloud Service Web Role Worker Role

Storage in Windows Azure GOAL: SCALABLE, DURABLE STORAGE Windows Azure storage is an application managed by the Fabric Controller Windows Azure applications can use native storage or SQL Azure Application state is kept in storage services, so worker roles can replicate as needed Blobs: large, unstructured data (audio, video, etc) Tables: simply structured data, accessed using WCF Data Services Queues: serially accessed messages or requests, allowing webroles and worker-roles to interact
