Building Hybrid Applications on the Windows Azure Platform

Ershad Nozari will be presenting on 'Building Hybrid Applications on the Windows Azure Platform'. Ershad will talk about common issues you will encounter when building applications that run partly in the cloud and partly on-premises, or when you decide to migrate some elements of an existing on-premises application to the cloud. He will present 'Patterns and Best Practises' on how to solve those challenges. Ershad will demonstrate migrating an existing on-premises application to the cloud and show how to take advantage of the many features of the Windows Azure Platform to maximize security, performance scalability, and availability. The following technologies will be briefly discussed during the session
