Handy Links for HPC and Azure

Lately, I’ve been working with customers who are doing both Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows Azure and it seems that the experience level of customers run the full range of just getting started in both areas, to being experienced in either one technology or the other.

I decided to put together a non-exhaustive set of links that could prove useful to those of all experience levels.  I state that this list is non-exhaustive because there are always more links, more blogs, more books and so on that can be found on the subject but I have found that these links seem to be the most commonly used.  And if I find other very useful links and information along the way, I’ll make sure to update the list.
