It's been 3 years since Microsoft first introduced Windows Azure, a cloud computing platform. In the time since, there have been a dizzying number of changes and improvements. From storage options to applications, there are different offerings that suit different needs. From free websites using a CRM like Wordpress, DotNetNuke, or Drupal, to complete Virtual Machine management, we'll look at the many ways to approach building cloud based solutions. Windows Azure has many application building blocks, making it straightforward and simple to build connected applications leveraging a cloud backend. This presentation will cover all the basics to give you the complete picture of the current state of Microsoft's cloud platform.
