Microsoft has always been terrible at branding. Is it 'Microsoft Azure' or 'Windows Azure' it is both ways multiple places on their site.

  The change to 'Microsoft Azure' was announced 6 days ago http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2014/03/25/upcoming-name-change-for-windows-azure.aspx http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2014/03/25/upco... beginning 3 days from now. So, yeah, it's in transition.

    I'll just shamelessly copy my own tweet about the branding problems of Azure "It took them too long to understand that the Windows brand is tarnished forever. I propose ditch "Microsoft" too. Just "Azure"."

      I get it ... you're not a fan of the branding. What matters is the product.

      I think it's more to do about branding consistency. Azure is far more than just 'Windows' now, you have: Media Services, CDN, Mobile Services, Cache, etc.
