[Arumugan]

Hi all,
　
Windows Azure Microsoft cloud-based applications in order to provide a platform, in the last year while Visual Studio is also from the first CTP version of Windows Azure to support the development of applications , I want ot know that what plug-ins can be installed for the build the application for Windows Azure. Please help. Thanks in advance.

You can use Web Platform Installer agreed to install the plug-in VS 2008. Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 also support the development of all the development, debugging, and deployment features, you can use it to build your cloud services. Windows Azure allows you to build reliable, high-quality, and can deploy and maintain applications, with the November 2009 release of Visual Studio plug-in, You can be more effective use of the Windows Azure platform. All the best.

Application development is very similar to the Windows Azure development of ASP.NET applications and deployed to IIS, and Windows Server. Although there are some differences, Visual Studio, or allows you to easily get started. You can use Visual Studio to do the cloud development, you will notice that the first thing I am afraid that is the Start Page above, Get Started page of this tag inside of the Cloud's introduction. The rich, wide coverage of resources, such as Windows Azure community links, regular updates on new features and services, links and so on. check and reply.

Windows Azure is one of the characteristics across any number of instances of independently scaling the size. Windows Azure to "components" is divided into Roles, Role and a Role is an independent Scalable components running in the clouds. Role of each instance corresponds to a virtual machine instance. Role is divided into two types:
Web Role - the Role refers to a network application running on IIS, you can HTTP and / or HTTPS endpoint access.
Worker Role - the Role refers to an application running in the background, run arbitrary. NET code. It can be exposed to external or internal endpoint.

you can use Visual Studio 2010 to develop the Windows Azure Cloud Services that is one of the key benefits of the development tools can help you to simulate testing and debugging environment, completely locally run your service. You do not even need to use Windows Azure account. The simulation includes the simulation is running in the local cloud computing services for your open-grid, and is also included in your local store to run on Windows Azure development of storage. With the open grid and storage, you can offline development, test and optimize your cloud computing service.

Once you are ready to deploy to the cloud will be applied, Visual Studio offers a range of release steps, your cloud computing services will be packaged into a deployable format for Windows Azure, then you can use the Windows Azure Developer Portal Deploy your cloud services. All the best.
