How Can Companies that Provide Hosted Services Leverage Windows Azure?

  • 项目

Hosters Can Scale Quickly

When hosters partner with the Windows Azure Platform, they have access to the three primary elements that allow developers to increase their time to market and enhance scalability.

  • Windows Azure operating system as an online service.
  • Microsoft SQL Azure as a fully relational cloud database solution.
  • Windows Azure platform AppFabric as a way to connect cloud services and on-premises applications.

Hosters have the ability to develop, integrate, and utilize the flexibility and scalability of the Windows Azure Platform cloud hosting solutions while running and maintaining applications within their own data center or network infrastructure.

Hosters Can Deploy New Offerings Quickly

The Windows Azure Platform provides a scalable cloud solution that hosters can utilize to develop new tools, services, and offerings to their customers. When hosters utilize the Windows Azure Platform, they can test, launch, and maintain applications their customers can use without having to invest in a costly infrastructure, expensive equipment, and other resources required to manage and maintain a cloud-based product or service offering.

Hosters Can Build Tools

With the Windows Azure Platform, hosters are uniquely positioned to offer services to support developers in deploying and managing applications deployed on Windows Azure. Hosters can integrate tools and control panels to market to developers looking for a cloud solution.

While minimizing infrastructure investments, hosters can offer specialty services that require unique hosting capabilities and build tools that simplify access and usage of cloud services to expand revenue opportunities.

Hosters Can Package Platform-based Services

With the Windows Azure Platform, hosters have an opportunity to package platform-based services such as cloud storage or media streaming, for resale through a reseller network.
