• #11: Windows Azure es como un Lego donde cada pieza es un servicio básico de IT. Al final cada pieza se consume como servicio (como “Lego as a Service”)
• #14: Lets now take a look at the global scale at which Windows Azure operates. We operate in 8 global regions across different contents. 4 in US, 2 in Europe, and 2 in Asia. These are gigantic in their scale and operations and here are some of the pictures. In addition, we have 24 CDN locations across the globe. We provide support across 109 countries and in 8 languages We have our local teams and sales offices across the world. In addition, we have 19 countries with local currency support
• #15: Windows Azure is a broad stack of services that runs in our datacenters globally. Think of the different services as building blocks. These services can be categorized into three classes – Infrastructure services which are lower level building blocks, Data services that provide storage and data management capabilities to apps, and App services which provide different capabilities to rapidly develop apps, scale and run apps at a global scale.
• #16: You can use these blocks or puzzle pieces to rapidly build apps, and then choose an Azure datacenter to run the app. Windows Azure takes care of the underlying management, and provides your app the scale it needs. This approach is what industry experts call a Platform as a Service.
• #17: But that is not all that you can do with Azure. Windows Azure also provides infrastructure services which allow for more hands on configuration and management similar the servers you have today. However, they’re hosted in Microsoft datacenters letting you use Azure as if you were operating your own datacenter in the Cloud. For example, you can provision VMs, give them private IP addresses, and connect to them using a VPN from your on-premises environment. Most importantly, this lets Windows Azure mimic your on-premises datacenter and run your current apps with little or no change without the expense of having to own servers of racks, cooling and building costs. Furthermore, you can connect the “datacenter” you build in the Cloud to your on-premises datacenter so the datacenter in the Cloud becomes an extension to your on-premises infrastructure. These “building blocks” lets Windows Azure to be used as an Infrastructure-a- a-service. So, you see Windows Azure offers IaaS +PaaS in one platform. IaaS provides flexibility, PaaS eliminates complexity. Use PaaS where you can, use IaaS where you need. With Azure, you can use both together or independently, and build apps of the future. That uniquely differentiates us. 
• #19: Slide Objectives: Explain the differences between traditional self-hosting and the three options of Windows Azure hosting. Notes: In a traditional environment you must manage the full stack. With Windows Azure you can choose a variety of options depending on your needs.
• #20: Slide Objectives: Explain how Windows Azure websites are simple, easy, and open. Notes:
