Python Cloud Advocacy for Microsoft

For a web side project to go from "working on desktop" to "live in the cloud", one decision that needs to be made is where to host everything. One option is Microsoft Azure. Lots of corporate sites use it. Is it right for side projects? 

Pamela Fox, a Cloud Advocate for Python at Microsoft, joins the show to help us with that question.
