Why is it so hard to find any good blogs on Microsoft and Azure? Most of the blogs we read weren't actually helpful, and it was obvious the writers didn't spend that much time actually educating their readers. Not to mention Microsoft and Azure licensing and details are so confusing, and are always changing! That's why our people write weekly blogs to answer the tough questions, and make it as easy as we can to break down the tough IT and security questions.
