Azure Mobile Service supports two platform for the backend. They are

1. .NET backend
2. JavaScript backend

I worked with JavaScript backend many times but with .NET backend it was my first attempt. So while creating Azure Mobile Service, I selected .NET platform as backend. To my surprise there is no Data tab available when you choose .NET backend.

Reason behind this is if you choose .NET backend data access becomes part of the .NET project and should be deployed from there. And in JavaScript backend Data tab would be visible in portal and scripts can run at the portal.
