Hi Kim, First of all, thanks for the eBook. Can we have MS Press in Kindle format (.mobi or .awz)? It is much better reading books on Kindle than in PDF. I know there are some tools and website converts PDF to Kindle format, but I hope from MS Press to consider Kindle as one of the standard format for its books. Thank you Regards, Hossam Alfraih Saudi ArabiaAnonymous

Joey, yes and no. Yes, you could use is as simple hosting. However, you have a number of options in how to access the data via services that you wouldn't normally have with regular hosting. For example, you can use Azure for your organization's SSO. I recommend that you really take your time to read the document to understand more how it differs from regular hosting.Anonymous

I am new to technical stuff, though i am into IT industry for 12 yrs now, but completely on the management side - Infra services. Can someone pls let me know 1. What skills you already need to possess before you take up Azure - Infrastructure services. If its Windows, Network, Virtualization, Storage etc. Can one of the expert tailor it in a way where i can learn only what is necessary for Azure.2. Do you think, i have a better future other than Azure.Any early response will help build my career. Am passionate to learn technologies - ofcourse not to do the troubleshooting but can be on top of future technology and advise on the technology.
