Determine if app is running in azure or not.

Question

I have an asp.net mvc app that is built to run as standard web app in iis or in the cloud.

I need to be able to determine if the app is being hosted in azure(dev fabric or cloud) or if it is being run as standard web app under iis.

How can I tell if it is running in cloud?

Answer 1

Could you use the StorageAccountInfo class?:

In your StorageAccountInfo object, the property "usePathStyleUris" is false when you are pointing to cloud storage and true when you are pointing to Development Storage locally.

Answer 2

Think I found it:

Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.RoleEnvironment.IsAvailable
