Microsoft unveiled on Wednesday refreshed versions of its Windows Azure software development kit and Azure tools for Visual Studio, which support the planned Windows Azure cloud services platform.
Windows Azure is being released in stages, Microsoft said on the Windows Azure blog. For example, support for native code is due this year. More information on a roadmap for Azure Services Platform and Windows Azure is due early this year. Azure provides the foundation of the Azure Services Platform, which assists developers in building applications that can span from the cloud to the datacenter, PCs, the Web, and phones.
