Just a post to correct some information provided in the article, concerning the number of endpoints available for use in a role. Since September 1, the number of available endpoints has been “upgraded” from the 5 limit you referred to a 25 limit, has can be read on a post by Corey Sanders, on the Windows Azure Team Blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2011/09/01/number-of-roles-allowed-in-windows-azure-deployments-increased-to-25.aspx).

Regarding the mention to Google App Engine being done previously, we could also reference some other offers from Amazon, Rackspace, Salesforce, VMware, etc… And everyone should really understand what each of them stands for, because usually someone throws a big company name/product into the game without even realizing what the solution really does and what the business is about. I’ve looked and tested a few of them, so no marketing involved in any of those references.
