  • Articolo

Programming Windows Azure - Programming the Microsoft CloudThis post outlines how to create basic Windows Azuer Web Role ASP.NET application configured for federation with Access Control Service (ACS) v2. This is only collection of resources that were tested individually but not in the sequence as presented below. I am collecting required raw materials to start with. The end goal is to build end-to-end walkthrough and test it. But that’s for another post.

Summary of steps:

  • Create basic Windows Azure Web Role ASP.NET project
  • Create and configure ASP.NET web application as relying party in ACS v2 Management Portal
  • Configure Windows Azure Web Role ASP.NET project for federation with ACS v2
  • Make modifications related to specifically to Azure/ACS v2.
  • Deploy your solution to Windows Azure
  • Test your solution

The rest of the post is the details for each step.
