CloudMediaContext mediaContext = new CloudMediaContext(new Uri("https://nimbustap.cloudapp.net/API/"), "F7DF85E4-E142-2212-A433-161FE60D409C", "7HCe8R6n", "urn:Nimbus", "https://nimbusvoddev.accesscontrol.windows.net");

IAsset asset = mediaContext.Assets.Create(inputFilePath);string fileName = asset.Files[0].Name;

IAccessPolicy readPolicy = mediaContext.AccessPolicies.Create("CanReadFor30Minutes", TimeSpan.FromMinutes(30), AccessPermissions.Read);

asset.AccessPolicies.Add(readPolicy);

ILocator locator = asset.Locators.Where(c => c.AccessPolicyId == readPolicy.Id && c.ExpirationDateTime > DateTime.UtcNow).First();

…

var uriBuilder = new UriBuilder(locator.Path);

uriBuilder.Path += Path.AltDirectorySeparatorChar + fileName;

Uri fullUrl = uriBuilder.Uri;… More information?

Log onto Azure portalCreate a new VM (or upload an existing one)

Create a VNET if you want to create a cloud networkCreate or upload other VMs and associate them with the VNET

Configure the VM(s) as you would normally configure your SP Farm servers

Use a Windows Azure WCF Service as a proxy serviceAccess on-premises service via Windows Azure Service Bus

More Information? OSP331: Building Microsoft SharePoint Online Applications in a Hybrid World

Process

Create SQL Azure (or other DB or endpoint, e.g. REST)Write a WCF service wrapper around that endpoint

Optionally add certificate for HTTPSProvide username/password configuration

Expose the endpoint in SharePoint Designer and create an external content type (ECT)Provide permissions for ECTCreate external list and publish to SharePoint Online

Optionally code against that list using the client object model

Summary

What about Identity?Option Development or OOB Sample Scenario

Active Directory OOB Create VM in the cloud and federate with Brooklyn.

ADFS Federation OOB Federate on-premises users for SSO to O365.

Office Live ID OOB Log into O365 session with your Office Live ID.

Windows Azure Active Directory

Development/OOB Uses token and secret key to authenticate service/ device or federate (ADFS 2.0) with claims for SSO.

WIF Development Identity management across multiple systems with no flow-through.

oAuth Development/OOB Can use with ACS or leverage SSO.

BCS OOB Configure external content types to pass username and password claim using SSS and Application ID.

SQL Connection String Development Obfuscate in application code or encrypt.

Shared Access Permissions Development Set permissions on a BLOB in Windows Azure storage.

Certificate Development/OOB Upload/manage certs within Azure for HTTPS service endpoints.

Headless Authentication Development Access SP-O from Azure using system account.

IAASGood for a number of SharePoint workloadsReasonable to use for remote, hosted development environmentsYou might find challenges with network configuration/performanceGood hybrid story (on multiple fronts)

PAASUse as service bridge or cloud-based data appsOffload code to cloudHybrid solutions and cross-device

SAASSupports the all-cloud model—true cloud connect modelIncreasingly rich functionality with CRM Online and BCS supportAzure can provide service layer for device abstraction
