Azure PowerShell Cmdlets

November 15th, 2009

{I’ve been meaning to post a quick entry on this, but I’ve been swamped with other tasks the past couple of weeks.}

On October 25th, Microsoft released the Windows Azure Service Management PowerShell cmdlets. These cmdlets allow you to script out and deploy, upgrade, and scale your Windows Azure applications. this also allows you to build automation processes around your Windows Azure services. The Service Management CmdLets closes mirror the service API. However, given that this is PowerShell, you can use pipelining to significantly cut down on your script.

You can downlad the Cmdlets here.

An important note, during the free CTP, you’ll only be able to scale your services to 2 instances per role.
