<h2>Abstract</h2>
<p>In this talk, I’ll introduce the Microsoft incubation project
<a class="reference external" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/devlabs/casablanca.aspx">Casablanca</a>,
the aim of which is to help C++ developers
productively take advantage of cloud-based computing without sacrificing performance.
Through a series of libraries and tooling,
Casablanca provides support for accessing Azure’s platform as a service (PaaS) functionality
and general purpose client and server <span class="caps">REST</span> communication.
Key aspects about the libraries in Casablanca include cross platform support,
leveraging modern C++11 features for productivity,
and <span class="caps">API</span> design asynchrony in mind to improve application responsiveness and scalability.</p>
<p>With this talk, we’ll go through the fundamental principles that
Casablanca is built on, an overview of the features it provides,
and several demos and examples illustrating what kind of applications can be built.
If you have interest in using C++ to author or interact with services in Azure
or <span class="caps">REST</span> services in general, this talk is for you.</p>
