Folks, I was thinking of moving some of my old static web sites to Azure, and I've noticed via links from others in here that they must doing this already. It looks you don't actually "deploy" a static web site to Azure (like an application), you just make a Blob container, upload the files and make the container access public. A quick test confirms this works okay, but there are some differences ... what's the equivalent of the old IIS log files to track usage? And because it's not your own IIS, what's replaces host headers so that someone going to www.mysite.com.au thinks they're at my domain but in reality they're looking something like this:
https://myaccount.blob.core.windows.net/web-mysite-com-au/index.htm You want to make visitors feel like they're at your domain, not some weird Azure blob url. *Greg K*
