Go Cloud
It has been a while Microsoft releasing its first cloud platform – Azure. For a small start up like us has been using Microsoft technologies to build our services for couple of years now to embrace a new platform, it always requires some additional efforts and time for the migration.
We think that the effort is justifiable to move to cloud, because we were struggling to build a scalable platform and we are a small start up with limited resources – the investment has to be worthwhile. Aside from scalability advantage, most of the cloud vendors like Amazon, Joyent, Microsoft offer pay-as-you-go charging model.
A recent interview with Microsoft CEO, Steve Ballmer, he regards cloud computing as “fundamental shift in the computing paradigm.”
