  • Hi,

    -> enable CORS ( cross origin resource sharing) on storage account for domain of the web application.
    ->Provide SAS token to the web page served be the web application
    - the token provide access to only to resource being accessed.

    ->using script in the web page upload/download directly to / from windows azure storage.
    ->No need for a separate service proxy through which resources will be uploaded/downloaded to / from windows azure storage.
    - the service proxy would need to scale and windows azure storage already scales.

    Regards.

  • Best way to go would be SAS . It will help you to grant limited access to users and define what can and can't be used.
