Well.... I wont pretend I understand all of it, but it seems their offering is pretty big.
So it doesn't have to do much with "Windows" OS in any sense, it's just a little confusing name for their SaaS.
Thanks!
- robert_nsu 14y agoOriginally Windows was the only OS in this platform, but I iirc they are planning to change the name also.
- gouranga 14y agoCorrect. They are dropping the Windows bit. Details here: http://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-renames-azure-services http://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-renames-azure-services

- maslam 14y agoThere's no brand change.
- pliu 14y agoThe virtualization platform they are using for all this stuff is Hyper-V which runs on Windows, so the name is still relevant.
