Agenda
Our Approach Cloud offerings What is the cloud being used for? New opportunities
Cloud“A style of computing where SCALABLE and ELASTIC IT-enabled capabilities are provided as a service to external customers using Internet technologies.”
Gartner, Inc. “Hype Cycle for Cloud Computing,” 2009, by Daryl Plummer et al, July 16, 2009.
“A standardized IT capability, such as SOFTWARE,
APP PLATFORM, OR INFRASTRUCTURE, delivered via Internet technologies in a pay-per-use and self-service way. “
“How To Message "Cloud" Offerings And Not Get Lost In The Fog,” Forrester Research, Inc., July 2009.
Consistent, seamless experiences across multiple PCs and devices
Choice of on-premise, partner-hosted or Microsoft-hosted delivery
Federation between enterprises and cloud services
Composition of multiple applications and services

Service Model
A service is made up of components called roles Arbitrary # of endpoints per role Arbitrary # of identical instances of
each role, one per VM, variable size Arbitrary # of roles
2 kinds of roles Web Role: We host your role on
IIS Worker Role: Provides an entry
point for you to run your code, can have both external and internal network conectivity
• Service architecture
Worker Role

Worker Role
Service Model
Internal to service: Any role instance can reach any
endpoint by IP/Port# Port #s assigned by platform, a query
API is provided
External to service: Outbound: No restrictions Inbound: Single VIP; port slicing for
multiple endpoints Developer can specify port # for any
input endpoint
• Communication (TCP, HTTP, HTTPS)

Storage Blobs
Small to very large files,Block Blobs, Page Blobs (random read\writes), Snapshots, Leases.

Relational database service
• SQL Server technology foundation
• Highly symmetrical
• Highly scaled
• Highly secure
Database “as a Service” – beyond hosting
Highly scaled out relational database as a service

Some examples of cloud workloads
Case Studies
RiskMetrics – financial simulations for portfolio risk analysis
Dominos Pizza – peak load provision on Windows Azure
TicketDirect – ticketing services for venues in Australia and New Zealand
New Services in the cloud
Observations Cloud computing likely to be business led or
driven Not necessarily about cost saving BUT maybe
about cost avoidance Hard to predict costs BUT opportunity to link
them to business value Perception of what scalability is changes in the
cloud Capacity planning is no longer an offline activity Many issues remain BUT most organisations
have opportunities
Summary
Software + Services Windows Azure Platform available now Opportunity to get started now
