I went slightly off-piste here, deciding instead to create an app to track my articles on the web. I created a mobile service and the Quick Start opened.īoth Guthrie’s blog and the Quick Start wizard in the Azure portal are based on a todo list app. I have only been partially successful so far. I had a quick go at creating my own Azure Mobile Service. Scott Guthrie’s introductory tutorial does not mention node.js. On the other hand, I wonder if Microsoft’s community would rather work with C# on the server, which is more mature and more familiar. Node.js is fantastic, and one of the benefits is that if you have an HTML and JavaScript client, you can use JavaScript both on the client and on the server. I was interested to see that the server-side scripts are written in JavaScript and executed by node.js. Azure Mobile Services also provides for server-side scripts which you can modify to handle validation and other tasks.

It is easy to think of cases where the cloud component of a cloud plus device app need do little more than authenticate users, and retrieve and update data. It is designed to be simple and cost-effective to get started, but can be scaled out by moving from a service on a shared host, to a dedicated VM with multiple instances. Mobile Services handles authenticated access to data stored in SQL Server Azure. Looking at the dashboard for a Mobile Services project in the Azure portal, you can see what Microsoft is going for here. It consists of a service type in Microsoft’s Azure cloud combined with a client SDK which is currently for Windows Runtime apps in Windows 8, though the REST protocol used could be called from any client platform.

Microsoft announced Azure Mobile Services last month and it was mentioned by Microsoft Server and Tools boss Satya Nadella at the launch of Visual Studio 2012, as an example of where Microsoft is going with its “Modern app” vision, continuous services and connected devices (but with a Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8 flavour).Īzure Mobile Services is in some ways a reworking of the WCF RIA Services developed to support Silverlight applications, and in fact I swear I saw a reference to RIA Services flash past when I was opening my first Azure Mobile Services project in Visual Studio.
