Azure Fabric Controller Internals: Building and Updating High-Availability Apps

Azure allows easily setting up and managing highly available and highly scalable applications. In this session, the Fabric Controller team will remove the mystery from internal Azure mechanisms, answering questions such as: How are customer services updated without downtime? Which updateability parameters can I tune to maximize performance and uptime? Which types of hardware failures exist and how can I configure a service to make sure those are transparent? How does Azure update its infrastructure and how does this impact my service? How does Azure compute resource allocation happen? How can Azure customers build automation to implement custom update workflows?
