Azure website that talks to third party services
- by Andy Frank
I have website that crawls data from many third party services when user browse to webpage. This can be really slow because I hit third party server and process returned data before showing it to user. I am hosting website on Azure (shared mode). I am thinking to improve my implementation. Here is what I am thinking...
Run a service that crawls data from third party services, process it and then store it in database. when user browse to my site, my site pulls data from database and display them to user.
But above solution is not clear to me. Should I have normal service or wcf service? If wcf service then should website talk to database or wcf service (that can access data from database)? If normal service then how can I deploy on Azure?
