SharePoint 2010 provides a rich developer story that includes an evolved set of platform services and APIs. Combine this with the power of Azure, and you’ve got a great cloud story that integrates custom, hosted services in the cloud with the strength of the SharePoint platform. In this session, you’ll see how you can leverage SQL Azure data in the cloud, custom Azure services, and hosted Azure data services within your SharePoint solutions. Specific integration points with SharePoint are custom Web parts, Business Connectivity Services, and Silverlight.
