Cloud operating systems provide on-demand, scalable compute and storage resources. They allow service developers to focus on their business logic by simplifying many portions of their service, including resource management, provisioning, monitoring, and application lifecycle management. This talk describes some of the technical challenges faced, as well as emergent opportunities created, by Microsoft's cloud operating system Windows Azure.
