Windows Azure Migration Scanner

  • Artykuł

I heard about this tool during a meeting and thought of sharing more information with you:

“Windows Azure Migration Scanner (WAMS) is a tool that scans application code and identifies potential Windows Azure migration issues needing attention.
WAMS works by scanning source files and looking for matches against a rules file. The rules file specifies text regular expression patterns that suggest areas requiring attention. For example, if a C#/.NET application makes references to the System.Messaging namespace, that flags a warning that use of MSMQ needs to be converted to Windows Azure Queue Storage.
While Azure Migration Scanner can’t identify all migration issues using this technique, it will give you a heads-up on many migration issues. Since the rules file is extensible, you can add new rules and even support new languages by adding your own definitions.
There are 3 ways to use the Azure Migration Scanner:

1. WAMS Desktop Tool: wams.exe, a WPF-based desktop GUI tool
2. WAMS Command Line Tool: wamscmd.exe, a console command
3. WAMS Library: wamslib.dll, the WAMS library that you can invoke from your own code”
