For ISVs who want detailed guidance for building Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) applications on the Windows Azure Platform, look no further than the new blog post and associated resources from Microsoft Evangelist, Vittorio Bertocci. Posted last week, Vittorio’s latest blog entry, “New Online Demo: Introducing Fabrikam Shipping SaaS”, announces the FabrikamShipping SaaS demo, a full end-to-end sample scenario, which demonstrates how to use the Windows Azure platform for exposing an application as a service.
Check out the introduction video on the FabrikamShipping homepage if you’re looking for more information – additional walkthrough videos will be available shortly. If you want to dive right in, download the FabrikamShipping SaaS Demo – Enterprise Edition Companion and the FabrikamShipping SaaS Demo – Source Code to get started. And be sure to write to fshipsupport@microsoft.com if you have feedback or questions about this demo.
