Hi,
First of all I am new to web development, so please bear with me :)
I have two virtual machines in azure. One is running a asmx web service through iis, the other is running a SQL server 2012. The web service is getting its data from the SQL server. When I use soapUI to test the web service I am getting really slow response times. I have recently moved to Azure and I have the same setup on Amazon Web Services. On Amazon the response times are 20-30 times faster and I am running with the lowest tier server on Amazon. I deployed the same code and the same database to Azure, so how come the performance is so poor?
What am I doing wrong here? This must be some setup issue. The Virtual machine running the sql server is never above 15% cpu acording to azure monitoring, so how come the response times are so low?
I have tried to fix this issue for a week now and have not been able to locate the problem, so I hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
