Build & Deploy
In order to deploy the OGDI Framework to Windows Azure please complete the following:
Building DataLab can be done using either MSBuild (which is included with .NET 4 Framework) or Visual Studio 2010.
Open a console window, run the following command:
%OGDI_ROOT% is the directory in which you have cloned the project to.
cd %OGDI_ROOT%
build.cmd
- Building OGDI Data Service
- Building OGDI Data Browser
- Packaging OGDI Data Service
- Packaging OGDI DataBrowser
Configuring DataLab is one of the most important step. [Note: Read more on Configuration Values]
The two main configuration values which need to be set are:
- DataConnectionString
- DiagnosticsConnectionString
These ConnectionStrings are used to connect to Windows Azure Storage. They consist of a protocol, a storage account name and a storage account key. To make things convenient there are replacement characters for the two values that need to be added.
-
[StorageName](Windows Azure Storage Account Name) -
[StorageKey](Windows Azure Storage Account Key)
Once these steps have been completed following the instructions for How to Create a Hosted Service on the MSDN Website will provide you the appropriate steps for deploying an Application to Windows Azure.
For more context on the Service Topology of the OGDI Framework refer to the OGDI Windows Azure Service Topology.
