Open and flexible PaaS with Windows Azure
Windows Azure enables you to quickly build, deploy and manage applications across a global network of datacenters. It allows you to focus on BUILDING applications using any language, tool or framework and you don't have to worry about infrastructure aspects (such as scaling, network configurations or OS patching). It is a fully automated self-service platform that allows you to provision resources within minutes and enables you to reliably host and scale out your applications. You store your data using relational SQL databases, NoSQL table stores, and unstructured blob stores, and can use Hadoop and business intelligence services to data-mine it. Beside .NET, Windows Azure seamlessly works with open source technologies such as node.js, java, php, python or github.
