During build 2012, we announced a new feature of Windows Http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/13357.html ">azure: Windows Azure Store. Windows Azure Store makes it extremely easy for you to find and purchase the advanced add-on services provided by our partners for your cloud-based applications. For example, you can use Windows Azure store to easily set up a MongoDB database in seconds, or quickly set up an analysis service like Newrelic to drill down into the performance of your application.

There are more and more applications and data services available in the Windows Azure store, and the list is expanding. Many of the services provided through the store include a free layer that allows you to try them very conveniently without any obligation. The services you ultimately decide to purchase will automatically be added to your standard Windows Azure billing-which allows you to add new features to your application without having to re-enter your credit card or install a separate payment mechanism.

Windows Azure Store currently faces 11 market customers: USA, UK, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Spain and Korea. In the next few weeks, we will expand the store to be available in more countries and regions.
