9 What s new in 2.5 SDK Azure Resource Manager Tools (Visual Studio 2013 and 2015) The Azure Resource Manager tools enable you to create an application using the Azure Marketplace templates in a new project type called a Cloud Deployment Project. You can create and edit the Azure Resource Manager deployment template (to declaratively describe an Azure Website and SQL database, for example) and parameter files in the Cloud Deployment Project. The parameter file makes it easy to use the same template to spin up multiple instances of the resources in development, testing, and production environments. Use the tools to create resource groups and deploy templates to simplify creation of resources. Folders in Storage Explorer (Visual Studio 2013 and 2015) - You can now view and create folders in your blob storage through Visual Studio s Storage Explorer. Connect to data more easily in Mobile Services (Visual Studio 2013 and 2015) In a.net backend mobile service, you can now specify additional database connections that your service requires whenever you publish your mobile service. To add access to an existing database, specify the connection string when you use the Publish Web dialog. Manage WebJobs from Server Explorer and debug WebJobs remotely in Azure (Visual Studio 2013 and 2015) The WebJobs feature enables you to run any program or script on VMs managed by Azure Websites. WebJobs are now represented as nodes in the Visual Studio Server Explorer. From the WebJobs node, link directly to the Dashboard to see how your WebJobs are running, start and stop continuous jobs, and run on-demand or scheduled jobs. Remote debugging of continuous WebJobs is also enabled. See Remote debugging WebJobs for more information. HDInsight Tools for Visual Studio (Visual Studio 2013 and 2015) The Azure SDK version 2.5 release adds HDInsight Tools for Visual Studio. Use these new tools in Server Explorer to navigate Hive databases and linked storage accounts for HDInsight clusters, create tables, and create and submit Hive queries. See Get started using HDInsight Hadoop Tools for Visual Studio for more information. Add Connected Services (Visual Studio 2015) - Use the Add Connected Service dialog box to connect easily to cloud-based services like Azure Storage and Azure Mobile Services. Add project references, insert connection strings, and get introductory guidance on consuming the services. Sign-in and view resources for multiple Azure accounts (Visual Studio 2015) - Visual Studio 2015 Preview enables you to be signed in simultaneously with multiple Azure accounts. View and manage Azure resources associated with those accounts in Server Explorer. Environments hub in Team Explorer (Visual Studio 2015) The new Environments hub in Team Explorer helps teams manage Azure environments and share these environments with other team members. Developers can deploy applications to Azure environments from a Cloud Deployment Project, and view resources, logs, and activities related to their environments. See Announcing DevOps style deployments using Visual Studio 2015 Preview and Azure for more information.

13 Getting started Use the web interface to create a new team project with a choice of TFVC or Git source control. Manage a project team s users by assigning access to individuals or through groups. Use the web interface to explore source code, work items, builds, and tests, all without needing to use anything but a modern browser. Start coding by connecting with Visual Studio IDE. Take advantage of deep integration to all ALM, load testing, and Application Insights capabilities.

14 Source control Team projects can be configured to use either Git or TFVC source control, with both options fully integrated into other capabilities such as work items and builds. With Git, use the tools of your choice including command-line, Visual Studio, or third-party options. Explore source code using web-based interface, view any code file, and download parts or full source code branches. Collaborate with other developers on your team by adding/viewing web-based comments on source code.

15 Collaborate Customize your team home page by pinning work item charts, sprint burndown info, build status, and more. Work item charts include a variety of visualizations including Pie, Bar, Pivot Table, and others. Collaborate with others in a virtual team room, discuss a project, or review past team activity such as check-ins, work item changes, builds, etc.

16 Testing Manage test suites, test plans, and individual cases using any modern browser. Create new tests, or review the results from those that were already executed. Perform manual testing using Microsoft Test Manager or the web-based test runner feature that lets you capture manual test results using any modern browser.

20 Application Insights

21 Introduction Application Insights is a new cloud-based service that collects rich operational, performance, and customer usage information from server and client/device applications. Application monitoring for performance bottlenecks and availability monitoring for websites and services (with alerting). Performance insights for identifying real issues, with sufficient information to make these data actionable. Usage analysis for insights into app usage, user behavior, etc.

22 Availability Monitor the availability of any HTTP endpoint by creating ping tests from one or more regions around the world. For more complex monitoring scenarios with multiple steps, use Visual Studio to record a web test for Application Insights. Use the availability dashboard to review historic availability data for your endpoint, with drilldowns for specific time periods or regions. Configure alerting to notify you of any outages, using alerts.

23 Performance Performance monitoring gives insight into your web application health such as what exceptions are being thrown, what s running slow, or if any memory leaks exist. Review server performance tables and charts that help you diagnose problems and visualize data over time. Drill into the details such as exception data with IntelliTrace files that can be downloaded and reviewed using Visual Studio Ultimate.

24 Usage Usage analytics supports both websites and Windows Store apps, with an integrated experience in Visual Studio. Use collected usage data such as top visited web pages or app screens to understand how an app is used, or go deeper and instrument individual application features. Drill into automatically collected data such as user geography, environment (OS, device, browser, etc.), language, network, etc.

25 Visual Studio Application Insights tooling for Visual Studio enables developers to easily instrument their Windows Store apps or websites right from the IDE. For new projects, Application Insights can easily be integrated right from the File > New Project dialog, or added to an existing project using a NuGet package. Once configured, Visual Studio projects are linked to analytics, which enables developers to easily reach their Application Insights dashboards using a simple Visual Studio right-click command.
