Put Stuff in Your Windows Azure Junk Trunk – Repository Base

Alright, so the title is rather stupid, but hey, it’s fun! :)

This project I setup to provide some basic functionality with Windows Azure Storage. I wanted to use each of the three mediums; Table, Blob, and Queue, and this example will cover each of these things. The application will upload and store images, provide a listing, some worker processing, and deletion of the images & associated metadata. This entry is part 1 of this series, with the following schedule for subsequent entries:

Part 1: Today (this entry) Part 2: The Junk Trunk ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application (Publishing on February 10th) Part 3: Windows Azure Worker Role and Storage Queue (Publishing on February 11th) Title aside, schedule laid out, description of the project completed, I’ll dive right in!

Putting Stuff in Your Junk Trunk

Create a new Windows Azure Project called PutJunkInIt. (Click any screenshot for the full size, and also note some of the text may be off – I had to recreate a number of these images)
