Full IIS Mode at Windows Azure

One of the nice new features in the December 2010 release 1.3 of the Azure tools is Full IIS Mode, the ability to run multiple web sites in a single Azure web role. The documentation is a bit sparse still, but the short answer is to add multiple <site/> tags in the ServiceDefinition.csdef.

Here's a good post on the Azure blog, and here's some documentation at MSDN.


<Site name="<web-site-name>" physicalDirectory="<directory-path>">
   <Bindings>
      <Binding name="<name-of-the-binding>" endpointName="<endpoint-identifier>" hostHeader="<url-of-the-website>" />
   </Bindings>
</Site>
