Is Azure a suitable / viable platform for a process that receives various encrypted and / or compressed files, extracts and manipulates them?
For example, I currently have a process that uses SSIS to download flat files, as described above, and upload them to the database. New files are then extracted and encrypted, or PGP is encrypted and exited from FTP.
If I were to port this process to Azure + SQL Azure, what is the best way to do this? I have an interface that allows you to send files to the blob repository - where can I go from here? The role of VM? The role of the worker?
