Casablanca: C++ on Azure

Herb Sutter C++, Cloud, Microsoft, Talks & Events 2012-09-19 1 Minute

I’ve blogged about Casablanca before. Here’s a related talk from TechEd Australia:

Casablanca is a Microsoft incubation effort to support cloud-based client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API design. Think of it as Node.js, but using C++ – from simple services, to JSON and REST, to Azure storage and deployment, and more.

Casablanca gives you the power to use existing native C++ libraries and code to do awesome things on the cloud server. In this talk from TechEd Australia, John Azariah and Mahesh Krishnan show how it’s done.

Isn’t this what we can expect of a future version of C++ AMP?
