I am working with Azure to deploy my MVC3 application. Few things want to ask.
1 – Do I need to republish my whole project to azure if I make some changes in the code. if not than how to upload changes.?
2 – Are there any charges when we publish our project to azure like charges for data used to upload.?
3 – If I select instance count to 2 in VS2010 by right click roles property will I be charge extra for that?
Thanks
Pirzada, to answer your questions: 1) Yes, every time you make a change to the code, you’ll need to recreate your Windows Azure service package, redeploy it to the staging environment in Windows Azure and then do a virtual IP swap (or VIP Swap) to make your changes live in production. You can check out How to Swap a Services’s VIPs for more information on that. 2) No, you will not be charged for the upload to the Management portal. 3) The Windows Azure billing is done on a per hour per instance basis, and so yes, you’ll be charged for each instance that is deployed for your solution. I suggest checking out the article Application Life Cycle Management for Windows Azure Applications to get a better idea of how to make changes to an application that has previously been deployed to Windows Azure. You should also check out How to Perform In-Place Upgrades for more information about upgrade a production application.
