I have finally got the time to start looking at Azure. It's looks good and easy scaling.
Azure SQL, Table Storage and Blog Storage should cover most of my things. Fast access to data, auto replication and failover to an other datacenter.
Should the idea come for an app that needs fast global access the Traffic manager is there and one can route users for "Fail Over" or "Performance".
The "performance" is very nice for Cloud Services and "Web Roles / Worker Roles" ... BUT ... What about access to data from SQL Azure/Table Storage/Blog Storage.
I have tried searching the web(for what to do about this need), but haven't found anything about the traffic manager that mentions anything about how to access data in such a scenario.
Have I missed anything?
Do people access the storage in the original data center (and if that fails use the Geo Replication feature)? Is that fast enough? Is internal traffic on the MS network free across datacenters?
This seems like such a simple ...
