I am writing currently one simple web application that runs on usual hosting environment and also on Azure environment. Web application is already hosted in CodePlex and during next two months I will publish application binaries and also source code. I tested my application in Azure environment and here are some screenshots I made.
Starting with new project | Project dashboard | Deployment form |
Files are ready to upload | Upload is in progress | Package deployment |
Allocating instances | Initializing instances | Application started |
Note one thing. In 7th and 8th screenshot there is number 2 written after current activity on a grey bar. Last screenshot has number 1 there. The point is simple. On my development machine I configured my web application to use two application instances. On Azure environment only once instance is allowed for me. That’s where is the difference.
