I thought Network World did a pretty good job of putting the Azure cake together – though the top layer shown here isn’t technically part of the Azure Platform. The top layer shown here is Microsoft Online so this is actually a good cake of our S+S offerings though even then it doesn’t include the Live offerings in the top layer.

Not a criticism of Network World – just a sign that we need to do a better job of articulating the many pieces so here is the slide from Ray Ozzie’s keynote that is a more accurate visual representation but doesn’t have the words of explanation from above. I’ll be looking to combine the two soon. Of course El Reg has their take on it too :)
