Meet Doug Hauger, Azure General Manager. Doug owns the business side of the Azure equation. How was the pricing determined? Are there different plans for "garage innovators" versus large enterprise customers? What does it all really mean? Would we be able to finish the conversation in under 15 minutes (hard for me to do, as you know...)? Of course, the complexity of the Azure business model would determine the time it takes to explain it (and the thinking behind it). Well, as you can see by the length of the interview, apparently the Azure people constructed a pricing model that is greatly simplified compared to some of our other business pricing models from years past. The overall simplicity of the plan is impressive.

Tune in. Meet one of the key minds behind the Azure business model and learn about some of the reasoning used in constructing the official plan...
