  • All of Azure’s primary services and storage API’s have PHP libraries.
  • The Azure developer portal has a landing page specifically for PHP developers.
  • Windows Azure runs MySQL. Azure subscriptions get one free MySQL Database.
  • PHP developers can use their $150 per month Azure benefit to run production web sites built in PHP and run them as Azure Websites, or Virtual Machines running Windows or Linux.

  • The $150 Azure benefit is more than enough to run 10 Node.js web sites 24/7 (Azure Web Site in Standard mode, with custom domain mapping).
  • Node.js may also be run on Azure Web Roles, Azure Windows VM, or an Azure Linux VM.
  • All of Azure’s primary services and storage API’s have Node.js libraries.
