Scenario: Web hosting with Azure
Contoso currently has:
• A company intranet
• Several ASP.NET applications
• Several WordPress sites
- Including a WordPress blog
hosted in Internet Information
Server (IIS).
The sites are hosted on two web servers which
are not load-balanced which causes downtime.
Contoso wants to implement a BI solution with SQL
Server 2014 Reporting Services but is concerned
about the growing number of applications that need
to be accessed remotely by users with a variety of
different mobile devices.
Contoso may be willing to migrate
its on-premises web sites to Azure.
As part of the pilot, Contoso and its Microsoft
partner will work closely to create and manage
a Word Press Blog, and ASP.NET website which
accesses SQL Server databases in Azure as well
as on-premises SQL Server data.
With this new capability, Contoso can reduce
the number of on-premises servers needed to
develop and run production web content, as
well as provide users with easy, secure access
to corporate data by integrating Azure AD
with on-premises AD.

to avoid the risk
of downtime
Once communications and access is tested,
application deployment, virtual networking, and
Active Directory integration testing will begin.
Contoso wants to ensure a smooth
transition using a phased approach of
integrating Azure and on-premises IT
resources
Contoso will work with an experienced cloudintegration partner to create the on-premises
integration with Azure IaaS services
The solution will allow Contoso to expand
and converge infrastructure as needed to
keep up with demands and save costs.

• Microsoft charges for virtual machines by the minute.
• Prices are listed as hourly rates and are billed based on total number of minutes when
the virtual machines run for a partial hour.
Basic Compute Tier
• New tier of compute instances.
• Similar in configuration to the Standard tier with lower prices.
• Does not include load balancer and auto-scaling.
• Well-suited for single instance production applications, development workloads, test
servers and batch processing applications that might not require these features.
Standard Compute Tier
• This tier of compute instances provides an optimal set of compute, memory and IO
resources for running a wide array of applications.
• These instances include both auto-scaling, load balancing, and internal load balancing
capabilities at no additional cost.
• Internal load balancing feature is currently in preview.

Scenario: Virtual IP addressing in the cloud
Contoso has decided that migrating to Azure is a cost savings move.
In addition, it will improve productivity by allowing employees
to access commonly used intranet data and applications from
the road using mobile devices.
The next challenge is setting up virtual
networking on the Azure side, and
connect the on-premises users and
resources to the Azure cloud.
As part the pilot rollout
of Azure VMs, the
virtual IP Addresses
(VIPs) will be set up and
the Dynamic IP Address
(DIPs) configured.

Windows Azure virtual network
Scenario: Site-to-site connectivity
Contoso is concerned about
the complexities and IP
addressing challengest of
connecting Azure public
cloud services with
on-premises IT infrastructure.
The process will start with a
pilot for a limited number of
users and resources using the
existing RAS/VPN services.
Connecting the office to the Azure public cloud
to the on-premises resources is a fairly simple
process that takes place on the Azure side by
setting up an encrypted connection to the
server using IPSEC.
If the pilot is successful, Contoso will
invest in a new VPN appliance that will
offer better performance, monitoring,
and logging.
IP addressing in Azure virtual networks
There are multiple ways to access a virtual machine by IP address:
VIP – Virtual IP address
•
•
•
An internet-facing IP address that is not bound to a specific computer or network interface card.
The cloud service that the virtual machine sits within is assigned the VIP.
You can have multiple virtual machines in a cloud service. They share the same VIP.
DIP – Dynamic IP address
This IP address is dynamically assigned (via DHCP) to your virtual machine by Windows Azure.
You rely on DHCP – Do NOT statically configure your IP address. Even for DCs.
• The IP address lease directly equates to the lifetime of the virtual machine.
• If you create a virtual network, the virtual machine will receive its DIP from that range.

Azure Traffic Manager
DNS-based service load balancing
Direct user traffic to services running across Windows Azure datacenters based on policy:
 Performance/latency
 Round-robin
 DR / Failover
How does Traffic Manager work?
1.
User requests info using the company domain name.
2.
The DNS RR for the company domain points to a Traffic Manager domain in
Windows Azure Traffic Manager. This is done by using a CNAME record.
3.
The Traffic Manager domain is part of the Traffic Manager profile that you create. You
also create rules within this profile. The rules you select dictate the load balance
method you want to use and what you want to monitor for health.
4.
Traffic Manager processes the rules and returns the DNS name of the cloud service,
which is later resolved to the IP address.
5.
The User contacts the service directly, by IP address. This information is cached on
the client’s computer. Thus, the client will continue to interact with the selected
service until that TTL expires.
How do I configure Traffic Manager?
You can configure Traffic Manager in the Management Portal.
1. Create a Traffic Manager Profile.
2. Add endpoints.
3. Configure the DNS TTL.
4. Select the Load Balancing Method.
•
Round Robin
•
Performance
•
Failover. Be sure to adjust the failover order.
5. Configure Monitoring.
• You can either monitor ‘/’ (default directory of the services) or create a file with the
same name in each cloud service and allow Traffic Manager to perform an http(s)
GET on the file. Then specify in Traffic Manager.
6. Save your changes.

Scenario: Deploying applications
Contoso is
ready to
start its
application
testing and
authentication to
Azure VMs and
applications from
devices running
in-house.
Deployment of a replica
domain controller, a
SharePoint 2010 Foundation
Server, and a SQL Server 2014
Standard Edition Server
Contoso users can access
applications from their
desktops in the office and
can access the intranet
website using the private
IP address space used for
in-house resources
Once the final phase of the testing is completed, the rollout will be
to integrate the on-premises AD DS environment with the Azure
AD infrastructure to ensure a single sign-on experience for users.
Active directory on an Azure VM
Business Drivers:
•
Support for pre-requisites for existing applications, such as SharePoint.
•
High Availability Solutions for SQL Server Databases using Always-On Availability
Groups.
•
Disaster Recovery solution for branch offices and a limited set of virtual machines.
•
Dev/Test Workloads.
Azure VM considerations for DCs
Do not sysprep the Domain Controller
From an existing physical machine
•
P2V a physical machine and move to Windows Azure
•
Move the Domain Controllers VHD file to Windows Azure
•
Create the virtual machine from the VHD
Starting with a new virtual machine
•
Build a new virtual machine and replicate directory to Windows Azure
Azure VM considerations for DCs (cont’d.)
Attach a data disk (caching turned off)
•
Do not use D:\ ( temporary physical disk)
Put logs and account DB on attached disk to
avoid data loss
Azure VM considerations for DCs (cont’d.)
IP Addressing
•
Windows Azure VMs require use of a DHCP leased IP address.
•
The lease is an infinite ‘dynamic’ lease, but not the same as ‘static assigned’ address that
you would expect to use in and on-premises environment.
•
The leased IP address is routable for the duration of the lease, which is determined by the
life time of the service (or virtual machine).
•
Don’t try to assign a static IP to your virtual machine. You will lose communication to it.
Azure VM considerations (cont’d.)
Deploy DNS on the Domain Controller
•
•
The Windows Azure DNS does not cover the AD DNS records needed.
Register the DNS server in the virtual network.

Formerly known as Dirsync, this tool
has been updated to allow for the
synchronization of local Active
Directory passwords to Azure Active
Directory.
Also synchronizes users, groups and
contacts.
This new feature will allow for same
user sign in with Microsoft cloud
services such as Office 365 Education
