The Fabric Controllercommunicates with every server withinthe Fabric. It manages the WindowsAzure operating system, monitorsevery application, decides where newapplications should run – optimizinghardware utilization.

Defining Windows Azure Architecture



VirtualizedComputation providesmassive applicationscalability. Customers

can build a combination of web and worker roles. Those roles can bereplicated as needed toscale the applications andcomputational processingpower.

Storage Services allowcustomers to scale to storelarge amounts of data – in anyformat – for any length of

time, only paying for whatthey use or store.

Service Management isperformed by the Fabric Controller,which controls all the resources withinthe data center. The Fabric Controllerdeploys your service and monitors theoverall health of the fabric.
