For questions relating to Windows Azure cloud hosting technologies

Windows Azure is Microsoft's cloud hosting platform. At a basic level, like most cloud hosting platforms, it provides virtual machines and data storage based in datacenters around the world, charging for the use of resources.

These services are all charged at different levels.
