    Winer: “I was hoping Microsoft would hit the home run, but it seems not. Why wouldn’t the Windows company just offer Windows in the cloud – nothing more and nothing less? The marketing people seem to have figured it out, they call the new offering Windows Azure, but what does it have to do with Windows other than sharing a brand? I don’t know. … Looks like I’m going to bet on Amazon.”

    RWW: “Earlier in the day I’d asked Daz Wilkin, of Microsoft’s platform group, how Microsoft Azure compares to Amazon’s cloud offerings. Wilkin stated that Amazon’s system can be thought of as an ’empty vessal’, because developers basically pour all their software and effort into Amazon’s system. Microsoft Azure on the other hand, according to Wilkin, is a ‘compute fabric’ – the developer can focus on building the business logic and then scaling the platform to the demand. Azure takes away the ‘lower level complexities’, according to Wilkin.”

    Handelsblatt: “Microsoft reagiert mit dem massiven Einstieg ins ‘Cloud Computing’ auch auf die Bedrohung seiner Geschäftsfelder durch Wettbewerber wie Google, Amazon, SAP, IBM und Salesforce.com. Sie bieten bereits Software via Internet an oder lassen Unternehmen ihre riesige Datenzentren online nutzen. – Kunden von Microsoft dringen seit langem auf mehr Öffnung hin zum Web. Für den Softwareriesen drohen dabei große Gefahren: Der US- Konzern muss seine nach wie vor wichtigsten Ertragsbringer, die Programme Windows und Office vor zum Teil sogar kostenlosen Konkurrenzangeboten via Internet schützen.”
