SignalR chat on azure

I have created a small and simple chat with signalr on a azure website. That doesn't work as expected. After some hours on Google I found out, that signalr should be implemented different on Azure.

What is best practise? Any good examples?

It should work on both mobile and in normal browsers.

To get signalr working when deploying to azure, I had to use

appBuilder.SetDataProtectionProvider(new MachineKeyProtectionProvider());

inside my Startup.cs Configure() method.

link to MachineKeyProtectionProvider gist

This is actually a workaround to this problem but it seems to work. Follow this link : ASP.NET 5 app in Azure doesn't work with SignalR

Per the docs at: http://www.asp.net/signalr/overview/deployment/using-signalr-with-azure-web-sites

Deploying a SignalR Web App to Azure App Service

An application that uses SignalR can be hosted in Azure without any changes in configuration or other settings (though for WebSockets support, see Enabling WebSockets on Azure App Service below.)...
