Azure Components !!

I found this really cool image in the latest Azure SDK that does a good job of explaining key azure pieces in one line each.



Windows Azure Overview

  I think the Microsoft messaging is definitely improving, and will go a long way in making users understand the long term vision. Above positioning of various Azure pieces is much better than the initial days when everyone was having a hard time understanding various roles and where it fits into the long term roadmap. Good job Microsoft!!

Now you only need to make sure that product can support the message. For example; the SQL Azure positioninig above may be right for structured data, but I am not sure about the support for unstructred data in the current version. :)
