Streaming Development Factory

I’m working on a deployment solution for my project. I want to upload files to a WCF service. This can be achieved with a streaming binding. On the internet there are many examples and I used some to get to this result:

  <system.serviceModel>
    <services>
      <service name = "Runtime.Setup.ServiceContract.SetupService">
        <endpoint
          binding                = "basicHttpBinding"
          bindingConfiguration   = "streamingHttpBinding"
          contract               = "Runtime.Deploy.IServiceContract.IDeployService" />
      </service>
    </services>
    <bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding
          name                   = "streamingHttpBinding"
          transferMode           = "Streamed"
          maxBufferSize          = "65536"
          maxReceivedMessageSize = "67108864" >
          <security mode = "None">
            <transport clientCredentialType = "None"/>
          </security>
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
  </system.serviceModel>
  <system.web>
    <httpRuntime  maxRequestLength = "67108864"/>
  </system.web>

The problem is I’m using the Development Fabric in Azure SDK v1.2 and that doesn’t support streaming over HTTP. The development IIS of Visual Studio is used out-of-the-box. I’m trying to make it use my IIS 7.
update: there was an error in my configuration which prevented the creation of a streaming endpoint. After correcting this the uploading of files to my WCF service works in the Development Fabric.

Working in a DevOps team is the best thing that happened to me. I like challenges and sharing the solutions with others. On my blog I’ll mostly post about my work, but expect an occasional home project, productivity tip and tooling review.
