4. Is Microsoft really serious about supporting open source on Azure? ? ANSWER Yes: - Its competitors do this - Cloud platforms sell cycles, storage, and bandwidth. Who cares what software uses these? ANSWER Yes: - Its competitors do this - Cloud platforms sell cycles, storage, and bandwidth. Who cares what software uses these?

5. Do customers care about open source on Azure? ? ANSWER Yes: - For running Linux workloads - For open source development on Linux and Windows ANSWER Yes: - For running Linux workloads - For open source development on Linux and Windows

22. What is TypeScript? A typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to ordinary JavaScript Who’s creating it? A group led by Anders Hejlsberg at Microsoft Why? To help make JavaScript a more effective language for creating large-scale applications

23. Microsoft Azure Mobile Services Microsoft provides SDKs for all User Authentication Notifications Custom Code REST/JSON Data Access Windows Store Apps iOS Apps Windows Phone Apps Android Apps Using services from Microsoft or Apple Using identities from Microsoft, Google, etc. Built with Node.js or ASP.NET

24. Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines (IaaS) Pros: Linux and Windows support; complete control of the VM Cons: Complete responsibility for VM management Microsoft Azure Cloud Services (PaaS) Pros: Least amount of required management Cons: Windows only; must reinstall open source software each time a VM starts Microsoft Azure Web Sites (PaaS) Pros: Easiest to use; built-in support for many options Cons: Windows only; using more than the options Microsoft provides takes extra work Use Mobile Services to support mobile apps

26. Operational Data Analytical Data Provided by Microsoft Azure Key/Value Store (Microsoft Azure Tables, Redis, …) Runs in Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines NoSQL Technologies SQL Technologies Big Data Analytics (HDInsight, Hadoop) Document Store (MongoDB, CouchDB, …) Relational Database (SQL Database, SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, …) Column Family Store (Cassandra, HBase, …) Relational Reporting (SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, …) Graph Database (Neo4J, …) Relational Analytics (SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, …) Runs in Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines and is open source

27. SQL Query SQL Query Database Table Schema Relation MySQL, etc. can run in a Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines VM ClearDB provides MySQL as a managed service on Microsoft Azure Application

28. To scale for lots of users and lots of data Pros: NoSQL technologies can offer more scalability than relational databases Cons: Often lose some benefits of relational databases, e.g., secondary indexes, full transactions To work better with different data formats, e.g., JSON Pros: Avoiding object/relational mapping makes code easier to write Cons: Persistent data designed for a single application is harder to share; limited BI tools To analyze lots of data in parallel Pros: Hadoop has a large and growing ecosystem of tools and people Cons: Moving lots of on-premises data to Microsoft Azure can take time To work with data in a more flexible way Pros: NoSQL technologies don’t have fixed schemas Cons: Fixed schemas help prevent errors; data often isn’t normalized Developers vs. DBAs?

29. Database 3 3 B B Shard A A 1 1 A A 2 2 A A 3 3 B B 1 1 B B 2 2 B B 3 3 C C 1 1 C C 2 2 C C 3 3 Value (String, List, Set, Hash) Key NoSQL technologies are typically deployed in Microsoft Azure Linux VMs Application

30. Example Technologies What It Provides Key/value stores Redis, Microsoft Azure Tables Fast access to large amounts of simply structured data Example Use Case Online shopping cart Roots are in Amazon Dynamo

31. 5 5 Column Family Keyspace Column Family Name Y Y X X B B X X 5 5 Row Key A A B B C C B B Row Data that’s frequently accessed together should be stored in the same column family Column Value 1 1 Column Name 2 2 3 3 2 2 5 5 4 4 7 7 8 8 4 4 Application Columns store multiple time- stamped versions of a value

32. Example Technologies What It Provides Key/value stores Column family stores Redis, Microsoft Azure Tables Fast access to large amounts of simply structured data Cassandra, HBase Example Use Case Fast access to large amounts of more structured data Online shopping cart A table storing web pages Roots are in Google Bigtable

33. Shard Database JSON Query Targets a specific collection MongoLab provides a managed database service based on MongoDB for Microsoft Azure Application Collection Document JSON Can create indexes on multiple keys

34. Example Technologies What It Provides Key/value stores Column family stores Document databases Redis, Microsoft Azure Tables Fast access to large amounts of simply structured data Cassandra, HBase MongoDB, CouchDB Example Use Case Fast access to large amounts of more structured data Scalable store for JSON documents Online shopping cart A table storing web pages Persistent store for Node.js application

35. Web Browser JavaScript Application PC/Phone/Tablet Apps Microsoft Azure Node.js JavaScript Server Code VM JSON Collection JSON Mongo DB VM JSON Mongoose and other packages support connecting to MongoDB Query JSON

36. NoSQL offerings are largely open source today NoSQL is among the first new software categories to arise since open source became so important This is likely to be how many new markets go The traditional software revenue model won’t apply NoSQL companies can’t make money selling ones and zeros They must sell other things The company MongoDB (formerly 10gen) provides good examples

37. NoSQL Example Other Examples Running open source software and charging users for execution services MongoDB in Microsoft Azure IaaS VMs Cloud platforms/hosting Running open source software and charging users for the value the software provides MongoLab on Microsoft Azure WordPress on Microsoft Azure Web Sites Providing services to maintain and update open source software MongoDB Enterprise Red Hat Enterprise Linux Providing services to help install, customize, and use open source software MongoDB Consulting Systems integrator open source practice Selling hardware that relies on open source software Android phones Google’s Linux-based services Running open source software and charging advertisers for your users’ attention All of these are also possible with proprietary software

38. Query Node Relationship Graph A A B B D D Property X X Y Y D D B B Hard to shard, so not intended for massive scale Relationships are first-class data items Application

39. Example Technologies What It Provides Key/value stores Column family stores Document databases Graph databases Redis, Microsoft Azure Tables Fast access to large amounts of simply structured data Cassandra, HBase MongoDB, CouchDB Neo4J Example Use Case Fast access to large amounts of more structured data Scalable store for JSON documents Fast access to data organized into graphs Online shopping cart A table storing web pages Persistent store for Node.js application Social graph

40. Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) Allows storing and accessing very large binary files across a cluster of commodity servers and disk drives Hadoop MapReduce Supports applications that process large amounts of analytical data in parallel Data is typically stored in HDFS HBase Column family store built on HDFS Designed for operational data, not analytical data Hive/Pig Tools for querying, transforming, and analyzing data Both generate MapReduce jobs Hadoop 2.0 adds YARN, supporting frameworks other than MapReduce

41. Data Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) Hadoop MapReduce Job Logic Hive Pig... Provides HiveQL, a SQL- like query language Microsoft allows submitting HiveQL queries from Excel Excel

42. Microsoft Azure Blobs Data Hadoop MapReduce Job HDFS API VM Logic Hive Pig... Excel Using HDInsight will typically make more sense than building your own Hadoop cluster on Microsoft Azure
