- Emulex’s crappy drivers saga goes on<\/strong>: They claimed they fixed the VMQ issue. It looks like they never did any tests involving Live Migration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

- It’s Official – Microsoft to Unveil “Next Chapter” for Windows on September 30<\/a>: I think Paul Thurrott was the first to report this. It will focus on the enterprise audience – the one currently sticking with Windows 7. I guess it will be no more than a show and tell. I still believe TechEd Europe is the bigger reveal, as I reported back at TechEd North America. In the meantime, ignore every rumour and “expert” that you work with or is in the general media.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

- Azure Websites Virtual Network Integration<\/a>: This is big – Azure Websites is happy to announce support for integration between your Azure VNET and your Azure Websites. Now you can integrate your websites with your VMs – in preview and only for Standard websites with up to 1 VNet connected.<\/li>\n
- How to host a Scalable and Optimized WordPress for Azure in minutes<\/a>: Deploy the new instance from the preview portal, and be able to scale WordPress out to meet demand. Very nice solution – I could have used that for this site!<\/li>\n
- Azure Active Directory Basic is now GA<\/a>: Azure AD Basic is now available for purchase through the volume-licensing channel – if like Premium then it will only be available through large enterprise VL programs, i.e. not Open, etc, but I don’t think SMEs want this feature, although they would like Azure RMS.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
