Just back form K-Mug Global Windows Azure Bootcamp

The event was a success. All the speakers as well as audience were energetic though out the day.

I thought I wont be getting chance to speak as my session was the last one and most speakers were exceeding their allotted time due to the density of the topics.

Even though Window Azure is just a piece of cake, it is huge when we think about developer perspective. Happy that people were tolerant enough to accept my session even though it was late for the day. Glad I was able to do two Azure demonstrations at least.

Security Overview–Windows Azure

April 26th, 2013 No comments

Security in cloud is always a concern and discussion point. Even though Windows Azure is not a silver bullet, I feel it is somewhat more secure than the traditional on premises infrastructure and services.

Here is a good read on Windows Azure security aspects.

Walkthrough: Using TDD with ASP.NET MVC

March 28th, 2013 No comments

A good reading here.

This walkthrough shows you how to develop an ASP.NET MVC application in Visual Studio using the test-driven development (TDD) approach. MVC was designed to enable testability without requiring dependencies on a Web server (IIS), on a database, or on external classes. (This is in contrast to unit tests for Web Forms pages, which require a Web server.)
