Riccardo Becker
Riccardo Becker works full time as a principal IT architect for CGI in the Netherlands. He holds several certifications and his background in computing goes way back to 1998, when he started working with good old Visual Basic 5.0 (or was it 6.0?). Ever since, he has fulfilled several roles, such as a developer, lead developer, architect, project leader, practice manager. Recently, he decided to accept the role of a principal IT architect where he focuses on innovation, cutting-edge technology, and specifically on Microsoft Azure, the Internet of Things, and cloud computing in general. In 2007, he joined the Microsoft LEAP program where he got a peek at the move Microsoft was about to make on their road to the cloud. Pat Helland gave him that insight, and since the first release of Microsoft Azure on PDC 2008, he started to focus on it, keeping track of the progress and the maturity of the platform. In the past few years, he has also done a lot of work on incubation with his employer, raising awareness of cloud computing in general and Microsoft Azure in particular.

Summary

The Windows Azure management portal is completely rewritten and fully HTML5-compatible, so it can run on any device now. Besides the underlying technology, many features were added to the portal as well.

The release of Windows Azure virtual machines brings infrastructure as a service to Windows Azure, allowing it to compete directly with other IaaS providers, such as Amazon and Rackspace. This new feature enables us to quickly migrate existing, native applications that are part of the cloud or hybrid scenario of our enterprise applications.

Windows Azure media services contains a set of features allowing us not only to expose our media files easily on the Internet (or build another YouTube), but also to convert media assets or even protect them.
