Windows Azure MMC 2 available for download
A tool designed to streamline the management of Windows Azure hosted services and storage accounts has been upgraded to version 2.
Windows Azure Management Tool (MMC) 2 is currently available for download, having been updated on the MSDN Code Gallery since May 10th.
Softpedia readers already received a heads-up in relation to MMC back in 2009. Now, according to Ryan Dunn, Windows Azure tech evangelist, the tool’s evolution to the May 2010 release milestone was so consistent that the latest Build was deemed version 2.
Windows Azure MMC is set up to bring to the table a variety of features that will significantly make easier the work of customers administering accounts in Microsoft’s Cloud platform.
In this regard, The Windows Azure Management Tool can help with tasks associated with hosted services, diagnostics, certificates, storage services, blob storage, queues, tables, and extensibility. One of the best things about the tool is that admins can circumvent the UI, and work directly with PowerShell cmdlets, a feature that IT pros are sure to appreciate.
