This videofrom Microsoft TechEd North America 2010 covers best practices for using the SQL Azure cloud relational database. Rick Negrin walks through the creation of a departmental application from scratch. We see firsthand how easy it is to provision a SQL Azure Database and start developing against it. He also look at importing and exporting data, and reporting. Time is also spent looking at strategies for migrating your existing applications to the cloud so that you are provided with high availability, fault tolerance and visibility to these often unseen data repositories.
