Writing and running projects in Azure Development Platform

Windows Azure Cloud Fabric and Azure storage services don’t support Cloud based development and the debugging operations, and hence the Azure SDK provide on-premise clones in the form of Development Fabrics and the Development storage applications which are installed with the Windows Azure SDK. SDK also installs a collection of sample apps and libraries of wrapper classes to help simplify app development.

.NET 3.5 SP1 and SQL Express 2005 or later must be present on your machine and ASP.NET and WCF HTTP Activation for IIS 7.0 under Windows Server 2008 or Windows 7 or later to install and run the SDK. SDK isn’t mandatory but using SDK.NET APIs and libraries for applications makes it far simpler than working on HTTP directly.

Installing Windows Azure SDK and tools for Visual Studio

Having installed Azure SDK, one must download and install Windows Azure tools for Visual Studio to add templates for Web Cloud Service, Worker Cloud Service, Web and Worker Cloud Service, and Workflow Service Projects. Current version of SDK can be downloaded from here http://bit.ly/no4AYV
