as-a-Service Service Service Service Service

7. Windows Azure
Windows Azure Comprehensive set of services that enable you to quickly build,
deploy and manage applications across a global network of
Microsoft-managed datacenters

8. Device + Cloud
Three Reasons for Device + Cloud
1 Allows new application scenarios
2 The cloud levels the playing field
The cloud provides a way to reach across device
3 platforms and a larger pool of resources from
which to pull

20. Business Logic

21. Node.js
Node's goal is to
provide an easy way to
build scalable network
programs
Mono –Thread Networking
Event-Driven
Google's V8 JavaScript engine
Server-side JavaScript application
No dead-locking
Improvement of memory management

22. Node.js
Windows Azure offer a SDK to develop and build web
application with Node.js hosted in the cloud
Example of server var http = require("http");
application
function onRequest(request, response) {
File javascript Server.js -> console.log("Richiesta ricevuta dal server");
response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type":"text/plain"});
response.write("Richiesta ricevuta");
response.end();
}
http.createServer(onRequest).listen(8080);
console.log("Server avviato");

23. Azure Mobile Business Logic
Architecture
Intercept CRUD operations and apply your logic with JavaScript scripts
