Agenda:
6:00pm-6:30pm: Registration
6:30pm: Interoperability on Windows Azure.
Rob Blackwell (AWS)
Most people are (understandably) building Azure applications in C Sharp and .NET, but the AzureRunMe project (http://azurerunme.codeplex.com) makes it easy to run third party technologies such as Java, Python, Ruby and even Clojure.
Windows Azure uses open APIs, a design decision that makes storage and AppFabric easily accessible to developers on non-Microsoft platforms. Iâll run through some examples and demos and show why I think that Azure has a useful part to play in interoperability scenarios.
