HI

Implement Application Insights and run tests, 
Application Analytics will reveal problematic endpoints and dependencies which you can improve.

Answer 3

Of course there are about a thousand questions we'd have to ask to give specific advice.

I'll start somewhere.

The times you posted, are those the times with a load of 250? 

Are your times any better with smaller loads?

What levels of app servers and database servers are you running - what happens if you just use Azure scale up/out options?

Armen,

You have a link to get that application insights to implement. This thing have gone so bad, my customers are telling me about the videos not loading.

Thanks,

One of the advantages of Azure is that you can generally add more computing power simply by going to the portal and clicking on the right buttons.  This may involve upgrading the database service level, or the app server service level, or the number of app servers. 

Of course this increases the cost, too. 

And it doesn't fix all problems.

But sometimes when an Azure app has been started on minimum database or servers, it is just what you need.

Are you familiar with the Azure portal?

Answer 7

I do Josh. I use the portal a lot as a partner too. fire away.

Well, on your app service there are the "scale out" and "scale up" options.

And for the SQL Database there is the "Pricing Level" option.

What are your current levels of app server and SQL Database?

Answer 9

Am a partner Josh, we only use our IUR. SQL Database is basic. The web app is from the IUR subscriptions too. We are Silver partner and looking to get all the discounts we are allowed including the IUR.

Well, I'm not sure what that all means.

Azure is cheap enough that I'd hope whoever the partner is would attach a credit card and let you try stuff out for an hour here and there at different levels.  If you can't do that, I'd say offhand that there's nothing else you can do right now.

Answer 11

Are you serious Josh. Am a Microsoft Partner. I paid for everything. Silver partnership is not free. You are not a businessman and I am.

You should stick to giving tech support and not buying Azure services.

Answer 12

Are you serious Josh. Am a Microsoft Partner. I paid for everything. Silver partnership is not free. You are not a businessman and I am.

A.T., not sure what the issue is then.  If you get one level of Azure as a partner, then either I hope you can adjust it there - at least temporarily, that should not cost much or even nothing if it's included in your partnership.  Or else, if somehow that account is locked down you might have to start another account that can be adjusted.

Can anyone else clarify what that situation is?

A.T., I've been around Microsoft for a long time, in every possible role, but I don't know what the current "Partner" program really means.

Thanks,

Josh
