Found out what the Guest OS is

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee924680.aspx

 

Looks to be "snapshots" of the Azure virtual image with windows security 
patches applied

V1.0 "Enhancements to and optimization of the Windows Azure fabric layer in 
which the guest operating system runs"

V2.0 "Stability and security patch fixes applicable to Windows Azure Guest OS, 
as noted below."

Microsoft just dropped v1.1 of the tools & SDK

http://blogs.msdn.com/jnak/archive/2010/01/29/february-2010-release-of-the-windows-azure-tools-for-microsoft-visual-studio-v1-1.aspx

 

only major updates seem to be

1.       You can mount Azure storage to your computer. E.g. Z:\  then just 
read/write to it

2.       "OS Version Support: Allows a Windows Azure application to choose the 
appropriate Guest OS to run on in the cloud."

 

I haven't heard about this 2nd one, not too sure what they mean by "choose the 
appropriate Guest OS". Could be related to being able to create your own custom 
Azure images with Tomcat / mysql installed?

 

 

But a heads up, it requires VS2010 RC which hasn't been released yet.

Must be coming out soon
