Windows Azure Design Patterns

My team is starting early next year on a large Windows Azure project for which I will be the Architect. As an architect, I have found the Design Pattern Framework 4.0 to be extremely helpful, but unfortunately it does not (yet) include Azure patterns and practices.

My questions is this: does anyone know where/how to obtain patterns and best practices for Azure? I am particularly interested in Communication and Storage patterns -- also, I would like to see real world experiences and examples.

I know this is a lot to ask, but I thought I try :-)

Thanks in advance.

Walt,

I just discovered this site: http://azuredesignpatterns.com/
According to its url it is totally dedicated to Azure Design Patterns...

Hey Walt:

Just a heads up, that Azure patterns and practices is something we're looking at for the next release of the Design Pattern Framework. It's very early at this point so I cannot give an ETA or anything right now.

All the best with your Azure project.
Let us know how it goes!

Dan.
