Summary

{`Relaying Twilio Requests using Windows Azure`}` The article discusses how to use the Windows Azure Service Bus to relay Twilio requests to a local development machine, allowing for easier debugging of Twilio applications. The author creates a WCF service that listens for messages from the Service Bus and a client application that sends messages to the Service Bus. The client application is an ASP.NET MVC website that uses the `ChannelFactory` class to create a channel to the Service Bus and send a message with the incoming request parameters. The Service Bus then relays the message to the WCF service, which processes the request and returns a response to the client application. The article also covers how to enhance this solution by sending TwiML responses back to Twilio and using Model Binding to map the incoming request parameters to a strongly typed view model class.
