Windows Azure

In this past Windows Event I learned about a cloud platform which enables you to quickly build, deploy and manage appplications within a global network of Microsoft managed data centers . It's not well known since it's been out for only three years. It provides an infrastructure that scales and adapts to changing your business needs.They basically help give you a better performance and a lot of support. They are located in San Antonio, Virginia California and Chicago. Where the one in Chicago is the biggest. I also learned that I can make web sites out of Windows Azure. On my free trial, I can make up to ten web sites. The way this was set up, was like Windows Virtual PC.(XP mode)This event actually made me understand virtualization even more. I enjoyed being a part of it.
