BREAKPOINT: Microsoft Azure – A Perfect Server-Side Solution for Mobile Apps

One of the challenges developers face is finding the right platform to host backend services for apps.  While the application is the piece of the puzzle users interact with, much of the magic happens behind the scenes, in the Cloud.  Microsoft has built a number of capabilities into its Azure cloud platform specifically for mobile application scenarios.  On this episode of Breakpoint, Paul Laberge and Jonathan Rozenblit  discuss the various aspects of Microsoft Azure Mobile Services.  They make sure you understand how these services can boost your app building productivity and your users' experience inside your app, regardless of whether your app is on iOS, Android, Windows or other platforms.
