The Windows Azure team published today a post about one of the ISVs that I've been working with: Digital Folio. In the article, they share their experience choosing and using the different storage options that the Microsoft cloud platform offers, specifically Windows Azure storage tables and SQL Azure databases… which, by the way, it is a common topic of conversation with other companies planning to migrate their solutions to the cloud. Special thanks to Fernando Cardenas with Digital Folio for his time and effort sharing his thoughts and lessons learned. Enjoy!
