Introduction to Windows Azure Diagnostics

Our friends from the support team have started a new series on Windows Azure Diagnostics.  If you have 5 minutes, check this video out and stay tuned for future posts in the series.

Windows Azure Diagnostics (WAD) enables you to collect diagnostic data from Cloud Services running in Windows Azure. WAD fulfills two new diagnostic gathering requirements introduced by the Windows Azure scale-out architecture:

  1. Save diagnostic data that would be lost during a reimaging of the instance.

  2. Provide a central repository for diagnostics from multiple instances. Using windows azure diagnostics, you can collect diagnostics data off of multiple instances at once
