I am running windows 8.1. Which version of SQL Server Express edition should I download from following :
SQL Server 2014 LocalDB Express 32bit
SQL Server 2014 LocalDB Express 64 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Express 32 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Express 64 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Express with Tools 32 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Express with Tools 64 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Management Studio Express 32 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Management Studio Express 64 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services 32 Bit
SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services 64 Bit
Well, depends on what you want:
32- vs. 64-bit - your choice
SQL Server 2014 LocalDB Express - LocalDB developer database - can be useful for EF code-first stuff
SQL Server 2014 Express - this is just the bare-bones engine - no tools
SQL Server 2014 Express with Tools - this is the engine with the management tools
SQL Server 2014 Management Studio Express - this is just the management tools (NO engine!)
SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services - this is the version with Integration services, Reporting Services etc.
I would typically recommend the with Tools version - can't be without a Management Studio myself. Hardly ever needs the Integration and Reporting Services if I'm doing something with an Express edition.
If you need just the engine for a server install - grab the bare-bones engine - that's enough.

According to this article Azure supports only Windows Server 2012 R2 Windows Server 2012
Windows Server 2008R2.
That's mean that I cannot deploy anything else?
Expanding a bit on #Erik's comment:
The article you linked to is all about Cloud Services. Azure Cloud Services (web and worker role instances) are stateless Windows Server VMs that you don't have to manage (you just deploy a package built by specific developer tools such as Visual Studio). Very easy to scale out (or in), and no worries about maintaining the OS.
Azure's Virtual Machines, on the other hand, support many different flavors of both Windows Server (2012, 2016 preview, etc) and Linux (Ubuntu, Red Hat, CentOS, etc). You have to manage the OS maintenance, and you have some more work to do around scaling (and there are different features around this, such as VM scale sets).
Those are the limitations for Cloud Services. Web Apps would be similar to that too since you can't explicitly choose which server operating system to host those.
With Azure VM's (Virtual Machines) you have a much wider array of options to choose from. There are a number of Operating Systems, different Windows versions as well as Linux, to choose from in the Azure Marketplace. You can also build a VM locally using Hyper-V and then upload the .VHD into Azure to run it there as a VM.

I got 2 websites in my IIS.
When I'm trying to link ColdFusion and IIS, ColdFusion web server tool don't see my websites.
You can see it in the image.
My ColdFusion version is 11 Enterprise Edition, IIS version 6.1, Windows server 2008 rc2 operating system.
I'm working on Oracle Virtualbox.
Known CF11 bug. You need to install the Microsoft C++ 2008 x64 SP1 Redistributable (or x86 if you're running 32bit).
The Visual C++ redistributable package is missing. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86/x64) and then try again.

Is Media Foundation supported on Windows 2012 64 bit server? We can not have Windows 7 or Windows 8 as the server and that's the reason we are opting for Windows 2012 server.
As NAudio 1.7 is released now, we would like to utilize the new functionality with Media Foundation.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Yes, you can install the Media Foundation components on Windows Server 2012.
Use the Add Roles and Features wizard from the Server Manager. Skip through to Features and select Media Foundation.
Also if you are using Windows Server 2008 R2 you can Add Features from Server Manager and then Select "Desktop Experience"

Hi I have installed Visual Studio 2012 Express Desktop. I am not sure if the sql server software that that came with Visual Studio 2012 Express Desktop is serverless or not. I have installed this at work and don't want a server installed on my computer because I am sure it opens ports which will be a security issue at work. Do you know if it is serverless?
Yes. There is definitely a server involved.
You don't need to worry about ports being opened though. Assuming you have a Firewall blocking the ports, the installation of SQL Server Express won't modify that without your permission.

I have a Virtual Machine with MOSS 2007 (Enterprise), VS2008 and SQL 2005.
I want to start exploring 2010. I need to know what I need to get started.
Can I donwload 2010 beta from Microsoft Site? Can I just install it without any conflicts with existing setup?
Thanks.
Yes, you can download the beta from MSDN.
It only supports 64 bit. You should provide yourself at least 6GB of RAM for decent performance. You can install it on Win 7, Windows Server 2008 SP2, or Windows Server 2008 R2. You can use SQL Express or install SQL Server 2008 separately. If you use SQL Server, you will need to install CU2.
