I’m now working towards my 70-533 Implementing Microsoft Azure Infrastructure Solutions and one thing that throws me is the difference between what is held in the Service Definition (.csdef) and Service Configuration (.cscfg) files.
A good write up is found here What is the Cloud Service model and how do I package it?
Service Definition Files (.csdef)
These hold
- Web Roles
- Sites
- Bindings
- Endpoints
- InputEdnpoint
- InternalEndpoint
- Certificates
- Imports
- LocalResources
- LocalStorage
- StartUp
- Task
- Sites
- WorkerRole
- ConfigurationSettings
- Imports
- Endpoints
- InputEdnpoint
- InternalEndpoint
Service Configuration Files (.cscfg)
These hold
- Role
- Instances
- ConfigurationSettigs
- Certificates
Service Package Files (.cspkg)
These hold the packaged application in a single compressed archive file.
