Docs says it has shell extension. Anyone know commands to start a shell extension to scan a particular file?

re: Tuning Windows Azure Performance, more thoughts

Hi Jason,

You have to take one thing into consideration.. Azure storage is not expensive SAN drives where you attach to your server using expensive fiber cards. It is commodity hardware (disks and network equipment) we are talking about and I believe this is a good thing.

There is really a trade-off, you can't use local disks due to high availability reasons. And SAN will be too expensive to make it feasible for internet scale.

Therefore there will be some impact on the disk performance but a lot of cost savings.

I believe you can always find alternatives to live with some performance loss on disks. Splitting DBs (using federation or other options), using alternative auto-scale DB options like Azure Tables (NoSQL) etc.

Other than this I suggest you check the below to see if your disk performance is optimal.

I've also noticed with the VM solution that you need to add a data disk to the VM to store the databases. The only disk that is persistant is the OS Disk. I also get quite a slow response when writing to the attached disk. It would be interesting if someone has done speed tests for this.

re: Dependency Injection with Unity Application Block

sidarok — Sat, 10 May 2008 15:43:33 GMT

Hi Hakan, great blog, great post thanks! Unity App block is great really, but I wonder should it be dead short after MEF is released. That's one of the biggest fears for enterprise software vendors, and I presume on Microsoft side there is a strong fuss about what way of dependency injection will be adopted in the future, since there are hell a lot of things going on in that area in MS Sidar (Prism, Unity, Policy Injection App block, Did I mention that Acropolis was suspended ? omg :))

Spring.NET has an AOP framework and the AOP in spring for JAVA (http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.0.x/reference/aop.html) receives lots of good feedbacks from community, it might be worthwhile to look at really! (I believe Castle also has a solution for that but am really not familiar with that.

The next step seems to be Dependency Injection Hell ! :)

Thanks for the post, iyi sanslar.

re: SQL Server Consolidation

andyjball@hotmail.com — Thu, 01 May 2008 06:33:23 GMT

interesting stuff . Two questions here

1. Would be nice to see a document highlighting benefits of SQL Server 2008 over 2005 for consolidation

- ie a lot of shops that have put off upgrading to 2005 from 2000 will now be thinking more seriously about it given 2000 is now in Extended Support .. Resource Governor is an obvious benefit

2. Running SQL Server in Production on Hyper-v

whether this becomes an attractive solution given the superior performance of Hyper-V (over say Virtual Server) . Obviously doesn't help with instance sprawl but potentially gives a bit more flexibility in ramping up / down processor / memory resources for non-linear workloads - ie end of month processing etc.

keep it real
