Blown away by how good Azure has become
I had looked into Microsoft’s Azure (then called AppFabric) maybe two years ago, and built some hello world type of things on there, and even hosted our wedding website there.
At that time I was not very impressed by what was being offered. You had to program to a very specific API, which might not be a problem if you were creating a new application, however shoehorning an existing application to Azure (then) would have proved extremely difficult, and for what benefit?
