Its seamless integration and inherent support for open source software make it an obvious choice for building cloud-based applications and services.

This book will take you through a full application development architecture. You'll start by creating, customizing, and extending HTTP-based web APIs and move on to host your web API with ASP.NET. Then, using a range of different features, you'll learn how to connect your applications with Microsoft Azure Service Bus.
