What is the best way to use live id authentication with azure based asp.net mvc project?
I find the options
1) With in Live SDK, there are options like REST, JavaScript, C# etc.
2) Since my project will be hosted in azure, there is another way “Securing Web Applications with ACS” http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg185928.aspx
Please suggest the design and also support with pros when an particular approach is good.
You definitely want to work with ACS. Not only is it intended for this purpose, there’s a fully worked up example at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg185975.aspx
which will give you a flying start.
ACS, and Windows Identity Foundation in general, lets you take the approach of separating identity verification from your application altogether. This saves a ton of code and means that you have much less “plumbing” to support.
