Shan McArther the VP of Technology over at ADXStudio has enthusiastically embraced our emerging cloud services platform; Windows Azure.  Not only is his company been off developing solutions that rely on SSDS as the storage model, but they’ve created an event registration solution that can be deployed to the Azure fabric.  This solution also integrates back to Microsoft CRM, really highlighting how S+S can extend and integrate well with both on-premise and cloud based solutions.  Shan demonstrated this solution at PDC in the BB32 Breakout session.  You can watch the recording here.

Shan has also written three excellent posts on his experiences using Azure and SSDS, including some helpful tips on a couple of issues he’s run into.  I would encourage anyone who’s starting to look into Windows Azure to take a look at Shan’s blog posts here:http://www.shanmcarthur.net/cloud-services
