Corporate Concerns
> “The Pillars of Concern”> Authentication> Authorization> Data Synchronization> Security of Data> Application Integration> Operations / Management
> Minimize the cost/effort to move to Azure

What did we find?
> Authentication – ADFS server against corporate AD in our DC
> Authorization – ADFS custom claim to make the authorization decision
> Data Sync – SSIS to push subset of rows and columns to SQL Azure
> Security/Audit – specific to each organization and industry for data and operations
> Application Integration – use of ADFS Passive Fed allowed Web SSO model between apps in different locations
> Operations/Management – cannot use Windows Event Log and SCOM
> Cost – very little code change to existing application; quick time to deliver
Why is this cool?
> You already have the skills you need (Visual Studio, SSIS)
> No infrastructure required! (assuming you already have ADFS)
> Don’t worry about the plumbing, just build the application
> Microsoft is providing the tooling and guidance to reduce the barrier to leveraging Azure

Application Overview
> Sales Tax Office> Real-time sales tax calculation> Multiple business entities, multiple ERP
modules or even different ERP systems> Sales Tax Office works behind the
scenes with minimal user interaction

Challenges
> Plex (3rd party libraries)> State management> Performance> Security> Database migration> Database partitioning
Lessons Learned
> Be prepared to sacrifice hardware and software control in exchange for lower maintenance costs.
> Log, log and log. Verbose logging will make application troubleshooting easier.
> Design your systems for scaling out, not up. If dealing w/ an existing system some code refactoring may be necessary.
> Use database partitioning techniques (the database also has to scale out due to the 10 GB limitation on the db size).
> Plan your data migration.> Store sensitive customer data on premises.> Use proper State management techniques - think
“Stateless”.

Overview
> Application Overview > Build a video and audio transcoding solution
based on the Windows Azure cloud computing platform
> Key Business Goals> Decrease transcoding costs> Provide greater scalability> Greater Geographic distribution
> Platform Adoption Driver> The key factor driving Azure adoption is to be
able to cost effectively respond to changing customer demands and volumes

Challenges
> Finding and implementing a inexpensive and reliable software based encoding, and implementing it in the cloud
> Determining an algorithm for auto scaling
> Working with pre-release SDKs, as they tend to change
> Deployment and release process
Benefits
> Significant cost savings versus existing transcoding hardware and software
> Ability to quickly and cheaply respond to varying demand levels
> Ability to easily provide geographically relevant solutions to our customers
