Download Windows Azure SDK (September 2011 Release)
The September 2011 release includes the following components in one simple installer. Click here to download and install. (I had a previous version of the SDK installed. The installer automatically removed it and then install the current version.)
- Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio*
- Windows Azure SDK
- Visual Web Developer 2010, if you do not have Visual Studio 2010
- ASP.Net MVC3
- Windows Azure AppFabric SDK
- Required IIS feature settings
- Required hot fixes
To learn how to create Windows Azure applications, I recommend that you start with the Windows Azure platform training kit (September 2011 Update). You can download it here.
