It looks like you can host native code on Azure: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd573362.aspx. Is it possible to run a socket server (listening tcp/udp) here? And even hosting a CLR on top?
I have a value that is correctly stored in a property of an object, but when I save the changes to the Azure storage database, the double value is stored to the database ignoring the point (7.1000000003 is saved as 711). Also, the property is changed to 711.0.
How do I solve this problem?
The field is already set to double in the class and the…
Is there any way to detect an azure solution uniquely?
I want to develop a library that is licensed per solution.
The only way to enforce this without having a licensing server is to have a unique identity of the solution. Is any GUID of such sort available?
Something like RoleEnvironment.DeploymentID.
When does DeploymentID change?

In this article I am going to explain how easily you can integrate the Microsoft translator API to your ASP.Net application. Why we need a translation API? Once you published a website, you are opening a channel to the global audience. So making the web content available only in one language doesn’t cover all your audience. Especially when you…
On occasion, I'm in a project where I need to store some information in an external DB. Usually, I create one in Azure and run some scripts that I adapt (the usual create table, create login etc.).
It just struck me that there might (and definitely should) be a tool in VS that allows me to create a project for my DB, pull out some boxes to…

As many of you might know, I’ve spent much of my time the past 12 months working on Windows Azure – which is Microsoft’s Cloud Computing Platform (I also continue to run the teams that build ASP.NET, the server framework libraries of .NET, and a few other products too). I will be doing a keynote in San Francisco…
I've created Cloud Service and linked TFS Preview Project for CI deployments. I've chosen Manual mode for triggering the builds. The previously queued builds were successfully completed and deployed. And the website based on this Cloud Service was running fine. Waiting in the queue was no more than 3-5 seconds.

I haven't used Azure myself, however, I believe it is possible to setup and interact with the web-server via RDP into a hosted Virtual Machine?
I am…

What I'm attempting to do now is allow users to upload a .zip file, and then take the files out…
I've been struggling with this one for a couple of days now. My current Windows Azure WebRole is stuck in a loop where the status keeps changing between Initializing, Busy, Stopping and Stopped.
It never goes live, and I can can never see the website as a result. The WebRole is an "out of the box" MVC…
Hi! I've spent the prior week trying to get a secure form of WCF to work on Azure, but all to no avail! My use case is pretty simple. I want to call a WCF endpoint in the cloud and pass messages to be queued for a Worker Role. Beyond that I want to limit access to pre-authrorized users,…
