How to create a MS Azure PowerFuse DB

From the Cloudy-With-A-Chance-Of-SQL dept. As you perhaps may know already, testing the Release Candidate of  PowerFuse 2010, it now supports a new datastore: More specifically Microsoft Azure SQL.

Azure is a cloud-based SQL server, with many interesting features, which are covered in the RG021 article. Over the last month I’ve been gaining experience with Azure in the context of PowerFuse, which I’ve attempted to condense in this article. Here you can learn step-by-step how to sign up for the service and get the Azure database server created. I will also show you how to connect PowerFuse 2010 to the cloud datastore.

The overall concept is very cool, since PowerFuse is able to take full advantage of the cloud-based datastore as we cache everything locally. Thereby great performance is ensured no matter how bad the connection is to the server. Anyway, I’m getting ahead of myself. Go read the full article here.
