• November 2009 Release of the Windows Azure Tools and SDK

  SumitMehrotraMSFT2009年11月14日 0:13

  Today we released several new features for Windows Azure through the Windows Azure Tools and SDK.  (Use the direct link while the release propagates)
  We look forward to discussing these new Windows Azure features, in detail, at PDC '09.
  
  This release adds support for Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 and VWD Express 2010 Beta 2.
   
  What’s New

  • Service Model UI: A redesigned and significantly more complete interface for manipulating Role configuration information. To access, double-click on a role node in the Solution Explorer.

  • Windows Azure Service Hosting Runtime Managed Library: The latest version of the Service Hosting Runtime API includes support for enhanced communication between roles and for runtime notification of service configuration changes. Direct communication between role instances enables new application development scenarios, including applications that distribute state across role instances. Service configuration changes include an increase or decrease in the number of request role instances and changes to the values of configuration settings.

  • Windows Azure Diagnostics Managed Library: The new Diagnostics API enables logging using standard .NET APIs. The Diagnostics API provides built-in support for collecting standard logs and diagnostic information, including the Windows Azure logs, IIS 7.0 logs, Failed Request logs, crash dumps, Windows Event logs, performance counters, and custom logs.
  • Windows Azure Storage Client Managed Library: The Storage Client library provides a .NET API for accessing the Windows Azure storage services.

  • Certificate Management: Enhanced support for SSL certificates in Windows Azure and in the Windows Azure SDK enables the secure automated deployment of certificates to services hosted on Windows Azure.

  • Variable-size Virtual Machines (VMs): Developers may now specify the size of the virtual machine to which they wish to deploy a role instance, based on the role's resource requirements. The size of the VM determines the number of CPU cores, the memory capacity, and the local file system size allocated to a running instance.

  • External endpoints for worker roles. A worker role may now define any number of external endpoints for HTTP, HTTPS, and TCP, and specify the desired port number for any external endpoint.
  • Persistent Local Resource Storage: Developers can now choose to persist data written to a local storage resource at runtime can when the role is recycled.
  • Development Storage: Development storage provides a high-fidelity simulation of the Windows Azure storage services in the cloud. Tables can now be created dynamically in the development storage Table service.
  • Additional role templates: Support for ASP.NET MVC 2 (2010 only), F# worker roles (2010 only), and WCF Service Application web roles.
  • Updated Samples: The samples included with the Windows Azure SDK have been updated to demonstrate new features. The samples now include both C# and Visual Basic versions.

• Windows Azure Service Management API upgrade (new versioning header)

  We've made some minor fixes to the Windows Azure Service Management API that we launched a few weeks ago.
  
  All requests for this release will need the versioning header "x-ms-version:2009-10-01" specified. Requests that use the older version "x-ms-version:2009-08-08" will fail and code will need to be changed to use the new versioning header.
  
  There is a new version of csmanage posted that uses the new versioning header and reflects the API changes at https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ProjectName=windowsazuresamples&ReleaseId=3233.
  
  The actual docs for the API, as always, can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee460799.aspx. We're pushing out new docs and you should see them there in a few hours.
