Security, access, and transparency across the value chain: suppliers, partners, etc.

and Type II certified) Consumption and usage-based pricing; enterprise-class SLA commitment

Compute – auto-provisioning 64-bit application containers in Windows Server VMs; supports a wide range of application models

Storage – highly available distributed table, blob, queue, & cache storage services

Languages – .NET 3.5 (C#, VB.NET, etc.), IronRuby, IronPython, PHP, Java, native Win32 code

Data – massively scalable & highly consistent distributed relational database; geo-replication and geo-location of data

Processing – relational queries, search, reporting, analytics on structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data

Integration – synchronization and replication with on-premise databases, other data sources

Service Bus – connectivity to on-premises applications; secure, federated fire-wall friendly Web services messaging intermediary; durable & discoverable queues

Access Control – rules-driven federated identity; AD federation; claims-based authorization
