Scaling Azure for Everyone

In this interview of Microsoft’s Scott Guthrie, Senior VP in charge of Windows Azure, he discusses how Windows Azure has always been focused on Platform-as-a-service (PaaS) and how it is going to evolve over the next 12 months. Microsoft wants to take some of these concepts that are hard to learn today, in the Azure or the Cloud, and democratize them for developers so that they can learn them and start using them with an immediate return on value. This brings an ecosystem perspective, with the creation of a marketplace in Windows Azure.
