This is a sample of how you can host RavenDb as Web role. It is highly recommended to use RavenDB build >602 (which is currently unstable). Version embedded here is 573.
- Tested to be working propertly in "Esent" storage mode when running in real Azure (with build >602).
- Application pool is configured to never recycle and timeout to achieve best performance
- Max query string is configured for up to 16Kb
- If you need to host it as Worker Role search "simplefx/AzureRavenDB" on GitHub. Originally I was using that solution to get it working for me.
