Even at current preview pricing, I'd still like to be able to turn off the service(s) to save some $$. But I'd rather not delete them if I don't have to. Anyone know how to do this?
That is unfortunately not possible with the current version and I fully agree with you that this should be possible. Because with the current model, we cannot benefit from the cloud flexibility that Azure is providing with almost all other services.
I have given this feedback to the team already, but we'll see what will come from it ;)
According to the documentation, it should be possible:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/biztalk-service-state-chart/
So, it's a bug ;) I hope this means they will fix it sooner.
I'm answering my own question almost a year later. I've found two options.
Option 1: Backup/Restore WABS service using the Azure web UI.
Option 2: Use 'suspend'/'resume' functionality using the RESTful API.

I hope this helps someone!

Is there a way to specify the memory used by firebase functions when running locally through the emulator? I know it can be done in google cloud (which I have done and can see my functions are working) but im not able to see anything in the documentation and I suspect low mem is causing issues in performance when running locally.
It seems this is not publicly documented and we can assume that this is not currently possible. You can file a Feature Request in the Public Issue Tracker. With every feature request, the Engineering team has more visibility of your needs and they can work on them accordingly to the impact on the users. This is the importance to look first for an existing one. I have searched but not found any, so I think the best way to proceed in this case is to create a new one. Please as much details as possible about how would you like to work this feature and if you found any workaround, so, the community in the PIT can implement it.
I have implemented alerting on my infrastructure. The problem is that the monitor condidition never changes to resolve. Anyone with the same problem?
Kind regards
Summarize from the comments for others' reference:
As stackoverflowusrone mentioned, different types of alerts resolve differently and also provide a sample.
Here I provide some more information about it, we can know the alert's logic by this tutorial
By the way, if you want azure develop team add some feature, you can raise a feedback ticket on this page.
I'm a novice mturk user. I created HITs for crowdsourcing using external question hosted on a server. I wanted to know if there is a web interface where I can see progress of my HITs. I tried looking at the https://requester.mturk.com/manage and https://requestersandbox.mturk.com/manage. But I cannot see the HITs programatically created using boto3. Should I look somewhere else? If not what's the way to get this information?
I share your pain right now. As of June 2020, this situation hasn't changed. HITs that are NOT created through the MTurk web interface STILL do not display on the web interface. It's terrible. We have 3 options for seeing and managing the HITs:
Use scripting and boto3. <-- Best option for now.
Use the AWS CLI.
Use the AWS shell (aws-shell).
I think the best option is to make scripts that do exactly what you need. Chances are you'll need to do things more efficiently than you could using the AWS CLI only. aws-shell isn't easy enough to use, and it also looks unsupported for over a year at this point (judging by their official github issue tracker).
For what you're asking specifically you'll need to use the method list_hits() and possibly list_assignments_for_hit(). See https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/mturk.html
Also I'm very new to this, so if it sounds like a barely or only sorta know what I'm talking about, that's correct. But I also wished there had been a straightforward answer to this question a couple weeks ago when I was sitting here dumbfounded.
Does anybody know if red5 can be deployed on Mircosoft Azure Cloud? The only hint I got was in MSDN forum:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazure/thread/d58fdffe-27a4-4e77-8683-4f58fc037ff9
Thanks!

Assuming the JDK usage is fairly normal, you should be able to make this work using a worker role that handles traffic and uses p/invoke to launch the red5 service.
Honestly, though, its likely you'll be blazing your own trail on this one.
I would recommend giving it a try ... you'll never know until ya know. Then post blocking questions here, vs just "does it work". Azure is new, so a lot of these "edge" scenarios are just waiting for someone to give them a whirl. Be the first :)
good luck
I toyed around with Azure in January this year and though it looked great in theory, I wasn't even able to deploy a simple dummy application due to various bugs I encountered.
I'd like to have another look, however I don't want to spend another two days in vain. If you have recently tried Azure, I would be interested to hear about your experiences.
Thanks,
Adrian
Yes, Xbox Live, Microsoft's BPOS suite, Live Messenger, and more all run on Azure.
If it can run Xbox Live, it can run your production app.
I'm using Azure for production stuff, and I've found it reliable, but pretty hard work. Hard work because:
The reference documentation is minimalist. Many functions are covered by a one sentence explanation and no examples.
While being much better than nothing, not everything that works on the development fabric will work on production.
When things go wrong (especially when a role keeps recycling) it can be hard to work out what the problem is, although remote desktop can help a lot.
Windows Azure works for us and allows to deploy rather complex business solutions with rather impressive auto-scaling capabilities.
We have already migrated all of the major projects towards Azure so far.
If still in doubt, take a look at 50+ case studies here.
Visual Studio 2010 added a BUNCH of functionality towards Azure development. I think it is enough to move Azure up to snuff for production apps.
However, if you don't have Studio 2010, I would wait till you can get it.
Another example that I like (I was personally involved a teeny weeny bit so I'm biased :) ). All Twitter/Facebook results on Bing.com are piped through an engine that runs on Windows Azure. It consumes multiple realtime feeds and surfaces them on Bing. You can do the math on the scale since it is crunching on all of Twitter's data and has been doing so for months
