Azure IaaS Services for SP2013
The picture to the right shows the various
services available on Windows Azure
categorized by the layer on which
they operate.
Windows Azure IaaS Services
utilized in this demo are
highlighted in red.
Deploy SP2013 on Azure using
Powershell
Premise for today’s show (Thanks Microsoft!):https://github.com/WindowsAzure/azure-sdk-tools-samples/wiki/Automated-Deployment-of-SharePoint-2013-with-Windows-
Azure-PowerShell
Why do this?
- Automate SharePoint farm deployment
- Reduce costs by leveraging IaaS
- Explore Azure scale-out and scale-up
options

Lets get started!
Prerequisites:
1) Connect to your Azure subscription
2) Enable PowerShell "Second-Hop" Functionality with CredSSP
Network Infrastructure + Storage Accounts + VMs for Active Directory
+ VMs for SharePoint + VMs for SQL = SP 2013 farm
Single VM Template vs Highly Available Template
Single VM Template
- Create a 3 VM farm for demo/test purposes with a pre-built configuration
Highly Available Template
- Utilize dependency injection to build customized highly-available farms automatically
Configuration guidelines
- Update the Virtual network config
- Choose appropriate VMs based on
criteria(cost/performance/scalability)
- Create custom images and upload for usage
on Azure
- Update the config files based on appropriate
scale-out & scale-up strategies
Lets Deploy the SP2013 farm!
- Review the config files
- Overview of the farm deployment output
using the master deployment script
- Access the SP2013 publishing site created
by the deployment
- Post deployment featuresAutoscale, Manage farm/site availability based on rules, etc
Thank you for coming!
Hope this was useful to everyone.
Note: This demo did not include the configuration of apps
for SP2013 or workflows(which can be configured after
the initial farm setup).
