Project Hawaii Cloud Services
The Cloud Services Software Developement Kit (SDK) for Windows Phone enables you to create of Windows Phone applications that take advantage of research cloud services.
The following cloud services are included in the Project Hawaii SDK:
- Relay Service
This service provides a relay point in the cloud that mobile applications can use to communicate. It provides an endpoint naming scheme and buffering for messages sent between one or more endpoints. - Rendezvous Service
This service is a mapping service from well-known human-readable names to endpoints in the Hawaii Relay Service. This service uses well-known human-readable names as stable rendezvous points that can be compiled into applications. - Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Service
This service takes a photographic image that contains some text and returns the text. For example, given a JPEG image of a road sign, the service would return the text of the sign. - Speech-to-Text Service
This service takes a spoken phrase and returns text (currently in English only).
