Windows Azure Services In Australia

  • Artikkeli

Woke up this morning to some awesome news ... Microsoft is bringing Windows Azure data centres onshore here to Australia!!

I know cool hey? Lots of scenarios can now open up for our most security conscious of customers. Instead of rehashing a lot of information, I thought I'd share two great articles that give a great deal of information relating to Azure services:

Firstly the announcement blog by Toby Bowers:

And secondly, a great article on the security implications of locally hosted services by my colleague Rocky Heckman:

Go give them both a read - they're well worth it.

Look forward to sharing all of the interesting scenarios for the use of local Azure services with my customers.
