If you’re looking for a ready-to-use sample Java application for Windows Azure, you should check out Thomas Conte’s recent post, “Java sample application for Windows Azure.”  In this helpful post, he describes the source code for a very simple Java Web application that he has published on GitHub.  This code includes all the basic building blocks you would need to start developing a “real” Java application for Windows Azure that uses blob storage and SQL Azure.

The sample is an Eclipse project that contains the following elements:

  • A “classic” JSP application created using the “Dynamic Web Project” template in Eclipse
  • The Windows Azure SDK for Java, including all its pre-requisites in terms of third-party libraries
  • The JDBC Driver for SQL Server and SQL Azure (version 3.0)
  • Hibernate (3.6.4)
