Our plan is to be in all the Azure regions before we GA the service. We will be gradually expanding our presence over the next months, based on available capacity. Please speak up if you have a region where we are not present yet.

Will this also be available in the German Azure Datacenter that is managed by T-Systems?

Our goal is to be present in all Azure locations, including the national clouds. Cannot yet say how quickly we will get there, please stay tuned.

I think that title goes to AWS...

I think you have not suffered Azure then. You will cry in relief when you are allowed to go back to AWS UI.
The information architecture is fairly broken. And the UI that slides is even worse - the only reason a UI like that exists because it's highly stateful: you need to remember what you did in the previous screen. And with the whole information architecture, it's crazy hard.
If Azure builds a Google cloud like UI and calls it azure-lite, I would throw all my money at them.

Fair enough.. I still consider AWS worse than Azure, and yeah, I've used both.. only dipped my toes into Google's but so far it's been better than either... however, if you're automating, it makes much less difference.
I'd like to submit IBM Watson services. That was a waste of an afternoon. And then a morning. And then another afternoon.
This is going to be huge in India. Microsoft has massive mindshare in India with the govt because of the regulatory landscape.
I have it on firsthand info that several banks in India are going to make their first ever transition to the cloud on Azure because of Microsoft's willingness to go the extra mile around whatever security dances that the banks want them to do.
Plus Azure has India datacenter which takes of the PII problem for healthcare and financial data.
It is truly unfortunate that the management console has the worst UX ever.
