Can I copy/paste my .NET websites to Windows Azure? -
i'm hosting websites on windows 2008 servers through old-school hosting company.
i'd switch windows azure in hope it'll better service.
is easy copying .net websites , databases across or not work , might have re-coded? have websites, database , rest services (rest talking mobile apps).
would amazon cloud easier switch?
quite few people have asked similar questions in past - check out questions/answers like:
- how of challenge port asp.net application azure?
- running .net app on azure
- windows azure - transfering .net web application azure
- search - https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=%5bazure%5d+port+site
for typical asp.net sql server application, won't have change - there possible problems/challenges in things session management , local file storage.
if rely on lot of local machine customisation - e.g. if absolutely need access persistent disk drive, 1 alternative consider use x-drive - see, example, how umbraco , dnn have been ported - http://azureaccelerators.codeplex.com/, http://dnnazureaccelerator.codeplex.com/ , http://waacceleratorumbraco.codeplex.com/. however, in general, i'd advise not take route unless codebase large , has - taking route impact architecture , scalability , durability.
