    <p>Gotchas can mean a whole lot of things..... :)</p> <p>In general, the code should easily migrate from ASP.NET to Azure</p> <p>Things to be aware of:</p> <ul> <li>Session state is bad since you are never sure what Azure VM you will hit</li> <li>You don't want to persist ANYTHING to the file system. MS will gurantee VMs will be up, but they can recycle any files you have on the server and they will be lost. Persistence should happen in Blob and/or Table storage.</li> <li>If you are doing lots of downloads of individual files, consider starting out with a separate URL. You can then easily use the Azure CDN for distributing globally and providing users better performance</li> <li>In regards to Azure table storage. This will provide an order of magnitude less cost than SQL storage and works great for certain scenarios. However, there is not a native ASP.NET version of this. If you think you want to use Azure table storage, start with it. The canonical example from MS are blog posts. We have used successfully in the past, but there are some gotchas like data being case sensitive if you need for your application</li> <li>Logins can use the Membership provider constructs in the ASP.NET stack. Obviously, out of the box is SQL, but you could roll your own to use table storage</li> </ul> <p>There are plenty of other things, but in general, ASP.NET applications can migrate pretty easily. If you want to look at utilizing some Azure specific features, like table storage or worker roles, those do not exist natively in the ASP.NET stack and it would be best to just start the site in Azure.</p> <p>Ping if you have specific questions</p>

    1. COThanks for the heads up about persistence. That seems to rule out SQL CE deployment.

    3. COMost of it will.... Azure reserved instances are similar to "classic" Azure. The VMs can (and will) be spun up and down

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
