• Windows Azure是微软基于云计算的操作系统，现在更名为“Microsoft Azure”，和Azure Services Platform一样，是微软“软件和服务”技术的名称。Windows Azure的主要目标是为开发者提供一个平台，帮助开发可运行在云服务器、数据中心、Web和PC上的应用程序。云计算的开发者能使用微软全球数据中心的储存、计算能力和网络基础服务。Azure服务平台包括了以下主要组件：Windows Azure；Microsoft SQL数据库服务，Microsoft .Net服务；用于分享、储存和同步文件的Live服务；针对商业的Microsoft SharePoint和Microsoft Dynamics CRM服务。
• Azure是一种灵活和支持互操作的平台，它可以被用来创建云中运行的应用或者通过基于云的特性来加强现有应用。它开放式的架构给开发者提供了Web应用、互联设备的应用、个人电脑、服务器、或者提供最优在线复杂解决方案的选择。Windows Azure以云技术为核心，提供了软件+服务的计算方法。 它是Azure服务平台的基础。Azure能够将处于云端的开发者个人能力，同微软全球数据中心网络托管的服务，比如存储、计算和网络基础设施服务，紧密结合起来。
• 微软会保证Azure服务平台自始至终的开放性和互操作性。我们确信企业的经营模式和用户从Web获取信息的体验将会因此改变。最重要的是，这些技术将使我们的用户有能力决定，是将应用程序部署在以云计算为基础的互联网服务上，还是将其部署在客户端，或者根据实际需要将二者结合起来。
