Welcome to issue #9 of Azure Weekly

Firstly, welcome back, and happy new year!

2015 has started with a bang in the world of Azure compute, where the ultra-large G-series VM has been launched, and critical application workload tests for D-series machines demonstrated performance gains compared to previous series. A D13 VM was capable of roughly 4.5 times the throughput of an A7 VM with attached data disks, and a D14 VMs with 32 attached disks able to provide 85% more write IOPS and bandwidth compared to an A7 VM with 16 attached disks. An accompanying white paper provides the details and suggestions for improving application performance. A VM complete with a pre-installed Docker engine is now available in the Azure Marketplace
