Have you ever imagined a world with an infinite amount of storage available and accessible to everyone? A place where anyone can easily access books, music, photos, videos, and any data from anywhere at any time through mobile phones, tablets, personal computers, and smart devices. Have you ever wanted a universally accessible storage system to record all knowledge, preserve creative works, and store scientific data for global collaboration? Do you want to be part of a team that strives to make this vision a reality?
If so, the Microsoft Azure Storage team is what you are looking for. We are building Microsoft’s cloud storage solution—Azure Storage—a massively scalable, highly distributed, and globally accessible system designed to serve the entire world.
