web service on cloud RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi all,

    I succeeded to deploy my exe on the worker role of azure cloud web service. My exe is based on mpi and I want to take advantage of cloud ressources. 

    Is it possible to increase the number of processors used for the my web service so that the excecution of my exe will be faster than locally?

    Please I need your help, I am new on cloud. 

    thanks

  • Hi,

     Thanks for posting.
     
      You can refer to the following Link which talks about how to Scale an application. On the Scale page of the Azure Management Portal, you can manually scale your application or you can set parameters to automatically scale it. You can scale applications that are running Web Roles, Worker Roles, or Virtual Machines. To scale an application that is running instances of Web Roles or Worker Roles, you add or remove role instances to accommodate the work load.

      you can also look at the following stackoverflow thread which is related to the same topic
