Creating a namespace for the Windows Azure AppFabric

The Windows Azure AppFabric Service Bus supports various features that involve the creation of a relay endpoint at a service-specific rendezvous address on the Service Bus. A listening service connects to the Service Bus and creates a listener at the rendezvous address. A client can then connect to the listener at the rendezvous address, and the Service Bus then relays communication between the client and the service.

The Service Bus uses a multi-part name to identify a rendezvous address. This name is constructed from a Service Bus namespace, configured on the Windows Azure Portal, and a service path used to distinguish individual rendezvous addresses within the same namespace. The rendezvous address is in the following form:

{SERVICE_NAMESPACE}.servicebus.windows.net/{SERVICE_PATH}
