Windows Azure and SQL DB materials–curriculum and development

I just saw that some new Curriculum materials for Windows Azure and SQL Databases in the Faculty Connection – those are great resources for helping with teaching students, especially since no knowledge of Cloud Computing is required.

• Windows Azure and SQL Database
• Windows Azure and SQL Database (Instructor Supplement)

It’s also good to see all the materials that are available for Windows Azure – to help get up to speed, weather it be for using, developing on, or managing.  A few I thought might be of interest…

Azure Features - Web Sites, Virtual Machines, Cloud Services, Big Data, and Media Services

Azure Developer Center – Languages supported: Node.js, PHP, Java, Python, and of course .NET

Hadoop on Windows Azure Tutorials /How To Guides

There are also some really good overview materials on the fundamentals of Windows Azure from David Chappell.

• Intro to Windows Azure
• Execution Models
• Understanding Cloud Storage
• Networking
• Building Hybrid Solutions

Windows Azure Trust Center – contains table which shows which Windows Azure features are currently in scope for the existing compliance programs.
