Build scalable mobile apps for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone
Mobile apps are more powerful, more connected, and more interactive when paired with services running in the cloud. Those services need to be responsive across a global audience and they need to be scalable for when your app goes viral. Windows Azure provides a flexible platform so you can focus on building a great app!
Beyond providing the raw computation and storage needed for a web service, Windows Azure can help with a number of other development tasks. Access Control helps you to authenticate users with their preferred credentials, including Facebook, Open ID, and Windows Live ID. Windows Azure queues and workers can help you manage sending push notifications to devices. Content Delivery Network and Traffic Manager can increase the responsiveness of your app for a global audience. With Windows Azure, you can start small and scale up and down based on demand.
The Windows Azure Toolkits for Devices makes it easy to use Windows Azure as the backend for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone apps. Download the toolkits and get started today!
