There is also a new v1.5 of Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 as well as an ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update Installer. Here’s a short list of some of the improvements:


  • Closer fidelity between local and cloud development
  • Improved support in Windows Azure Tools for Visual Studio for developing and deploying cloud applications.
  • New disaster recovery functionality in Windows Azure Blobs, Tables and Queues. Geo-replication replicates stored data between two locations that are hundreds of miles apart but still in the same region. It’s now turned on for all Windows Azure Storage accounts for Blobs and Tables.
