Virtual Machine Availability

Service Level Agreements

What’s includedCompute Hardware failure (disk, cpu, memory)Datacenter failures - Network failure, power failureHardware upgrades, Software maintenance – Host OS UpdatesPlanned downtime – 6 day notice, 6 hour window, 25 minute downtime

What is not includedVM crashes caused by 3rd party software, Guest OS Updates

99.95% for multiple role instances4.38 hours of downtime per year

Fault and Update DomainsFault DomainsRepresent groups of resources anticipated to fail togetheri.e. Same rack, same serverFabric spreads instances across fault at least 2 fault domains

Update DomainsRepresents groups of resources that will be updated togetherHost OS updates honour service update domainsSpecified in service definitionDefault of 5 (up to 20)

Windows Azure Web Sites

code smart go livestart simple

Start SimpleGet started with 10 free web sitesCreate new sites in secondsEasily manage and scale your sitesAutomatic load balancing and shared storage across instancesScale out or up to reserved instances for improved performance and scale

Code Smart

Use ASP.NET, ASP, PHP, Node.jsSQL Azure or MySQL databasesStart with open source apps Develop with VS and WebMatrixSupports any Web development tool on any platform (Windows, OSX, Linux)

Go Live

Rapid deployment for quick iterationIntegrated source control with Team Foundation Server (TFS) and GitBuilt-in monitoring of perf and usage dataQuick access to request logs, failed requests diagnostics and diagnostics

Application Scenarios

Popular open source appsLaunch a professional looking site with a few clicks using apps like WordPress, Joomla!, Drupal, DotNetNuke and Umbraco

Continuous developmentDeploy directly from your source code repository, using Git or Team Foundation Service.

Modern web appsPerfect if your app consists of client side markup and scripting, server side scripting and a database. Powerful capability to scale out and up as needed.

Application ScenariosWeb Sites

Apps that require advanced administrationCloud-based applications that require admin access, remote desktop access or elevated permissions

Cloud Services

Multi-tier applicationsCloud-based applications that separate application logic into multiple tiers (i.e. caching middle tier, asynchronous background processes like order processing) using both Web and Worker Roles

Apps that require advanced networkingCloud-based applications that require network isolation for use with Windows Azure Connect or Windows Azure Virtual Network

Porting existing line of business appsChoose an image from the library or upload your own VHD.

Enterprise server applicationsRun your existing enterprise applications in the cloud, such as SQL Server, SharePoint Server or Active Directory.

Windows or Linux operating system Support for Windows Server, along with community and commercial versions of Linux. Connect virtual machines with cloud services to take full advantage of PaaS services.
