I want to learn more about Azure development.
I want to start by emulating an existing web application in C#.NET.
I most likely want to present it over the internet as Azure SaaS, to about 30 simultaneous iPAD users.
With responsive Design.
It’s more like a work planner then a workflow program.
Will have Super User, Admin and User permissions.
- I could write it as a C#.NET WinForm application, because every desktop application can be used for SaaS. Right?
- I could write it as an ASP.NET Webform? SaaS?
- I could write it as a DNN module? SaaS? Here the permission structure comes out-of-the-box.
- I could write it as ASP.NET MVC? SaaS?
- I could write it as a Sharepoint 2013 Windows Azure Workflow?
- I could probably not write it as a Silverlight web application because there is no plugin for the iPAD. Right? Moreover SaaS would otherwise not be needed? Perhaps a virtual web and SQL server in the cloud if there was a pugin.
When the emulation of the original 15 pages web application is finished I want to expand the functionality with 15 additional pages.
For flexibility towards my 30 users I want to do as much as I can in code, to quickly incorporate their feedback.
I have 15 months left for my BizSpark subscription ($ 150 per month for Azure services) and I want a balance between time / cheap / best solution!
PLEASE HELP!
PS: If you can help with some links of how to set up an Azure development environment (Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate) and how to deploy in the cloud. A good recent book reference would also be OK! Perhaps SaaS is the wrong word here because usually this is
used for thin clients, anyways I want Azure also for cheap hardware and software overhead.
