I&#8217;m still figuring it out&#8230; Seriously, Cloud Computing is the up and coming state-of-the-art in IT. The idea is to use and benefit from data, applications, and networks that are hosted not on your desktop, and not on a server near you. In fact, data and applications are always available but out there, on the Network, in the cloud. Of course, it sounds simple, but it&#8217;s very, very complex. It&#8217;s a true shift of paradigm, a copernician revolution asking as many questions that it answers, from <a href="http://dataportability.org/">data portability</a> and <a href="http://www.autonomo.us/">users&#8217; rights</a> to virtualized environment and <a href="http://www.joyent.com/">application frameworks</a>. And that&#8217;s where players such as Amazon, Joyent and Google are striving. And of course, Microsoft wants to be the dominant player there. So it released a nifty platform that is both a server for running distributed applications and hosting data, and a Microsoftâs Live set of Services. That&#8217;s where it&#8217;s not clear. They say everything works on Azure, but it seems you better want to use their stuff first.
