- 31. PaaS and SaaS Deploying CouchDB as Cloud Services and Software-As-A-Service
- 32. Deploying CouchDB as a Cloud Service – Windows Azure cloud services run on a fully automated, highly scalable cloud platform – Ongoing management of the OS and infrastructure is handled by Windows Azure – Infinitely scalable, on demand – App and CouchDB in same cloud service provides security – PaaS approach is the easiest way to deploy CouchDB on Windows Azure – For quick and simple deployment, use the CouchDB on Azure Worker Role Install: http://ossonazure.interoperabilitybridges.com/articles/cou chdb-installer-for-windows-azure#h2Section5

- 50. Start Simple Get started with 10 free web sites Create new sites in seconds Easily manage and scale your sites Automatic load balancing and shared storage across instances Scale out or up to reserved instances for improved performance and scale
- 51. Code Smart Use ASP.NET, ASP, PHP, Node.js or Custom SQL Azure or MySQL databases Start with open source apps Develop with VS and WebMatrix Supports any Web development tool on any platform (Windows, OSX, Linux)
- 52. Go Live Rapid deployment for quick iteration Integrated source control with Team Foundation Server (TFS) and Git Built-in monitoring of perf and usage data Quick access to request logs, failed requests diagnostics and diagnostics
- 53. Node.js and Grunt Deploying Web Sites on Windows Azure Web Sites
- 54. What is Node.js? • A JavaScript runtime environment – Server-side JavaScript – Compiled for speed – Command line – JavaScript API for network and file system access • Designed for high concurrency – Events, not threads or processes • Never blocks, not even for I/O • Uses CommonJS framework syntax – Close to real OO
- 55. Why Use Node.js ? • JavaScript on server-side and client-side • Event loop with a stack – Node.JS serves requests in an event loop – Large number of simultaneous requests. • Avoids Context Switching – Waiting for I/O or Synchronization operation to complete. • Node attaches JS callbacks to I/O requests – The “event driven” part – When the original IO is completed, a callback to the server completes the request.
- 56. Speedy I/O With Events Threads Events Threads lock apps / threads One thread Listens for incoming requests Process from queue Multiple threads dependent on multiple processes State saved for each event Depends on context switching Not dependent on I/O or Synchronization
- 57. Node.js with Grunt • Node.js - Scalable, Event-Driven HTTP server – JavaScript and simple API • Grunt on Node.js – Deployment and Task Management
