Microsoft has made Windows Azure Infrastructure Services generally available today. This is Microsoft’s IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) offering.

Normally I wouldn’t write about this because it is an IT Pro topic more so than a developer topic; however, I’ve been hit with a number of emails and postings on it today, so it is front-and-center in my mind.

Note: This post was independently made; however, I am disclosing that we do business with Microsoft.
