Cherokee Running on Windows! (Azure)

yeah, lame attempt at drawing attention with the subject line, but the
simple fact that we can now use Cherokee as the front facing server to a
hybrid-server app backend which in addition to the the classic Azure stack
now includes any given Linux or Windows Server stack-based app is pretty
damn sweet.

Step One: Get Cherokee running on an Ubuntu-based instance >
http://ubuntu-uswest.cloudapp.net/ < Check!

I'll be spending more time over the weekend and into next week running
benchmark comparisons between AWS:EC2 and Azure:Virtual Machines running
the same ASP.NET benchmark application being processed by Mono running on
Linux, Microsoft .NET via Windows Server 2k12, all of which being handled
on the frontend by Cherokee. Once I have something meaningful to report
back I will. :-)

... on Windows Azure (is what should have been included in my previous
email which, just in case any of you are unaware, the new release of Azure
includes, amongst other things, the ability to run Linux and Windows
Server-based virtual machines alongside the rest of the Azure stack:

Sorry for any confusion!

Very interesting. I look forward to see what sort of performance difference
you see in EC2 vs. Azure Virtual Machines. In my experience I was not happy
with EC2.

You do know that I have spend a lot of time on Cherokee Win32 ;)

Next to that if you have Windows 7 available why not compile Cherokee
inside Interix? Microsoft <3 Unix
