ASP.NET Providers with Windows Azure

 

Are you trying to get the ASP.NET Provider code working in a separate application with Windows Azure?  If so, check out this item from the read me file:

• Make sure that the Table Storage service is running in development storage. Also make sure that the database called 'ServiceHostingSDKSamples' is currently selected for the table service; choose Development Storage -> Tools -> Table service properties -> ServiceHostingSDKSamples. 

I missed this and got the error message below:

<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>
<error xmlns=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata\">
<code></code>
<message xml:lang=\"en-US\">Attempt to create table 'Sessions' failed. Creating a new table dynamically is not supported in development storage</message>
</error>

I sure hope that this changes  in the future.  I'd like some way to have the asp.net membership "stuff" setup for me, like with .net 2.x.

ASP.NET 3.5 Service Pack 1 Wrox Blox

My eBook ASP.NET 3.5 Service Pack 1 Wrox Blox is now for sale.  Please buy 3 or 4 copies for the ones you love.

Seriously, there is a lot of good solid material on the new features, especially AJAX History, Routing, and other new features.  Please check it out.

Some interesting things I am finding about Windows Azure

• Queue messages have a max size of 8kb.
• Queued messages in azure are typed.
• If you are interested in #Azure, I would suggest following @smarx on twitter.com.
• Transaction support will come in future #Azure CTPs.
• ACID Transactions are only supported on single entity updates at this time in azure.
• Azure table writes are synchronous.
• In the commercial release, MS will offer some control over geodistribution and georeplication. Info is scarce at this time.
• In the CTP, Azure runs in "a single datacenter on the US west coast."
• The lease timeframe appears to be configurable. The default is 30 seconds.
• You can hold a lease on message in an azure queue. No one else can see it during the lease. This is good.

These are just some of the things I have found while reading online.  As I find out more, I'll be posting. If you want immediate access to my info, go to twitter.com and follow me (@wbm)
