In today’s section, we will see, how to setup VM with Visual Studio 2015 image in Azure(https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/). Azure provides no of options while setting up the VM. You just need to select the ideal one which suits you as shown below in the screen shot.
Today, in this section, we will talk about Windows 10 Upgrade. On my 2ndry machine, I have been already running windows 10 evaluation copy. But, after official release, i upgraded my OS version. There are bunch of ways to achieve the same. But, i chose to jump the line and install the same explicitly. I have done the same by using Media Creation Tool. you can download the same here (Download Link). There is also a very good note about the upgrade on Verge link. This upgrade takes around 30-40 minutes, depends on your internet bandwidth.
Once the installation completed. You will experience perfect silky experience. Here, is my desktop page & start page
Let us consider, you want to navigate to some specific task, then you can do the same as shown below:-
You can also search the web quickly with new Microsoft Edge browser.
Like this there are many other things which you can refer @ emulator
I hope you will enjoy the windows 10 journey. Thanks for joining me.
In this segment we’ll talk about creating mobile service in the cloud and then using the same in our App. During the course we’ll use bunch of different kinds of technologies. We’ll talk about these technologies individually once we progress along the path. So, without wasting time 1st let’s go ahead and create Mobile service in Azure. As you can see I’m in the Azure portal
where in currently i am not having any mobile service created. I’ll go ahead and create this link as shown below and create new mobile service.
Now, let’s go ahead and explore the service. So, here a framework has been installed on the IIS server hosted on windows azure which connects to the backend server. This provided REST based endpoints which means by using this REST endpoint we can perform some operation. As you can see below in the screen shot, our service is created and with manage keys option i can go ahead and off-course and associate key with this service.
Now, let’s have a look at the dashboard for the service. This is essentially a very usual dashboard we have used earlier with Azure.
we’ll be exploring more this dashboard later. But, for now let’s look at the DB section which is also created with this service.
Now, let’s look at the dashboard of the db server. Here, you can get all the performance related parameters and also connection string for connecting to the database.
Now, let’s open SQL Server management studio and connect to the database what we created in Azure. However, while connecting to the azure portal via SSMS; firewall may obstruct connection to happen as shown below.
In order to fix the same, you can go back to the azure portal click on manage server and include your IP in the trusted IP List.
Once that is done, you can go ahead and login via SSMS as shown below
As you can see below in the screen shot, currently no table is created here.
you can also login online SSL management portal.
Now, let’s go to mobile service dashboard and click on windows project as shown below and then download the starter app.
With this i would like to wrap this session. In the next session, we’ll explore the app which we have downloaded from Azure and will do some really cool stuff with that. Till then stay tuned and Happy Coding.
I just installed Windows 10 on my 2ndry machine. And to my surprise when I installed the same; I was expecting new Microsoft Browser by default; unfortunately this was not there. But, when I delved around Spartan documentation; I found the trick to enable the same.
Steps to enable Spartan(Microsoft Edge) on Windows 10 preview.
Type this “about:flags” in IE browser. This will open the following set of commands in the browser.
Then, select “Enabled” under “Enable Experimental Web Platform Features,” and restart the browser.
After doing above settings, you need to restart the PC to sync the settings. Once you restart, you will notice project Spartan logo on start screen which you can apply to taskbar as well as shown below.
Here comes project Spartan. Awesome experience doing hands on with Windows 10. Specially Project Spartan.
