An Azure situation...
Can you help piece together these two scenarios:
• * = Originally I was going down the ‘MVC5 / WebAPI, Entity Framework, SQL Azure, resources in Blob storage’ route, however this link got me thinking: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/services/mobile-services/ am I making things more complicated than it needs to be? Do Mobile Services already support much of what I need to do (including supporting AzureAD auth)?
What we want in the end: Pull data out of sharepoint (news items, pdfs, health and safety news) then put all those resources / items in Azure so it’s fast, robust and geographically distributed, then send push notifications for new items. The only client devices are WinPhone8 and eventually Win8.
• Auth has me stumped. What is the best approach? All devices will be BYO
o We need Staff to auth against the AzureAD (using OAuth, JWT, whatever), just need an approach
o Contractors will be given a code so we can link their account to our system, we might link using their liveID
