Wikieexplorer running on Windows Azure

  • Article

Dotnetsolutions, a Microsoft Gold partner from the the UK have just finished porting their “Wikieexplorer” application to run on Windows Azure. Behind the scenes, a set of Windows Azure background processes have re-organized the millions on Wiki entries from the Wikipedia database into a form which can be easily navigated by their explorer tool which is again powered by a set of Windows Azure processes.

By entering a term such as “England”, it will create a map off all the related terms which you could then navigate.
