When it was announced & What was the reason to changes their names? I thinks Azure word comes from Microsoft favorit colour by Microsft researcher. Am I correct or any other reason? You are very closed to MIcrosoft so I can hope my answer from you.

All my above query only the reason if the titles “SQL Services” and “SQL Data Services” was very common for all SQL Server professionals then what was the reason?

Thanks & Regards,
Rajiv Singh

I have MS SQL Server 2005. Do I need to download the SQL Server 2008 Express to develop SQL Azure applications?

I actually don’t understand the entire picture. What I understand is that Microsoft is trying to build cloud computing environment based on Microsoft-technologies like Amazon and others. I think right now, it would cost a lot to build a MS-SQL-database driven web-sites or applications on cloud. So if MS Azure comes up with pricing-structure like Amazon, it would be very useful.

I would be grateful to you, if could answer the following questions –
1) I have a very small internal website based on MS SQL-database and ASP. I want to put it on the cloud. Do I need to make changes in Database? Do I need to make changes in asp-web-pages?
2) Can I take a regular backup of the database from cloud? Can I establish database-replication between cloud-database and my internal server database?
3) Does SQL Azure mean anything without cloud computing? I mean is there any other use of it?

Thanks in advance
