Editor's Notes
- #5: Web sites, cloud services, mobile services,vms, backup & recovery, BI
- #17: Blob, Table, VM SQL Server, Hadoop
- #18: URL needs to be unique similar to amazon S3 rules
- #23: On the site it is not 100% evident where to go to get it
- #24: Get ready to get some coffee, does take awhile on a clean machine
- #30: After you click import, choose your Azure Site (mine was mcbeev).publishsettings file contains your credentials (unencoded). Security best practice for this file is to store it temporarily outside your source directories (for example in the Libraries\\Documents folder), and then delete it once the import has completed. A malicious user who gains access to the .publishsettings file can edit, create, and delete your Windows Azure services.
