3. 1. How can we eat? 2. Why do we eat? 3. Where shall we have lunch? Survival, Inquiry, Sophistication “The History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why, and Where phases.

5. Storage – lots of it Connectivity – lots of it. Continuous. Global Processing – lots of it. Scalable. Burstable. Privacy/Security Quick updateability Toys – ACS, Queuing, CDN, TrafficManager, Caching, Services, … Why Azure?
