Cloud Storage Studio/e

Cloud Storage Studio/e (e for Everywhere) is a browser based client for managing Windows Azure

Storage, an important component of Microsoft's Azure (Microsoft's Cloud) platform.

 

Cloud Storage Studio/e is completely browser based. To access your data repositories hosted in Microsoft's Cloud platform, all you need is a browser with Silverlight 2 plugin installed.


Cloud Storage Studio/e allows you to access and manage your data stored in Microsoft Cloud platform using just your browser. That means you need not install any special software to access this data. Cloud Storage Studio/e makes use of the same REST API which are made available by Microsoft to access Azure Storage repository; however we have encapsulated those APIs in our application and presented them to you in an intuitive and easy to use user-interface.

Storage Accounts

Cloud Storage Studio/e allows you to connect to one or more Azure Storage accounts simultaneously so that you can browse the tables, queues & containers across multiple storage accounts together. Furthermore you have an option of persisting the storage account information in Silverlight's isolated storage so that you can connect to your storage account without inputting the account name & key over and over again.

Using Cloud Storage Studio/e, you can list all the tables which belong to your storage account. You can create new tables and delete existing tables. Within a table you can create new entities, update or delete existing entities. Cloud Storage Studio/e supports pagination concept for getting entities data.

Using Cloud Storage Studio/e, you can list all the queues which belong to your storage account. You can create new queues and delete existing queues as well as update queue metadata. Within a queue you can create messages, peek at up to 32 messages at a time and clear all messages in a queue using Cloud Storage Studio.

Windows Azure Blob enables applications to store large objects, up to 50GB each in the cloud. Using Cloud Storage Studio/e, you can list all the containers (which holds blobs) which belong to your storage account.
