  This task is not completed! My Websites are still running in IIS 7.5!

  Websites are still marking on IIS8. Why is this closed?

  .NET 4.5 is now available on Windows Azure. Read more about it at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazure/archive/2012/10/31/here-s-what-s-new-with-windows-azure.aspx including SDK links.

  .NET 4.5 (not on Server 2012 yet) is now available on all Azure Web Sites data centers.

  What the current status of this - I am very surprised (or not) that there is no coordination and communication between .Net releases and frameworks using these releases. Many people are moving onto Azure but need guarantees that when a new release comes out in .NET it is supported on all frameworks - doesn't makes sense -

  So 4.5 has been deployed to the shared hosting only, where's IIS8? And where is 4.5 in full Azure?... Win 8 is out in 3 days and I can't deploy the backend services for my RT app into Azure, so dumb.

  We need .NET 4.5!!

  We just released the first version of our product built using 4.5 framework. We thought of using Azure , but just came to know that Azure website feature does not support 4.5 framework.

  Holy Steve Jobs! (joke) Why MS can't deliver .net 4.5 ASAP at least as beta???????

  I would like it

  According to Scott Gu's blog post below, support for Windows Server 2012 (that I guess would include IIS 8) and .Net 4.5 should be coming in October 2012.

  Pretty disappointing news. What about roles?

  Hello,
  We are announcing .NET 4.5 (but not Windows 8 yet) for Windows Azure Websites. See below: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazurewebsitespreview/thread/3fab0f32-23c9-4122-9ece-8c3edbadde47

  We desperately need to use IIS 8 and .NET 4.5 as our project deeply rely on core technologies from both these products.

  I can't believe other competitors are rolling Microsoft's own technologies faster than they deploy it themselves. Do Microsoft believe in their own technologies? Or are they waiting on third parties to fail with the cutting-edge installations, so they don't have disasters on their own platform.

  This has forced us to have to move our solution off Azure on to another public cloud. Needless to say, this has cost us a lot of money and resources, just because Microsoft can't keep up with their own technologies.

  I would really suggest newcomers to Azure to think twice before making the move to Azure. How can we trust new Microsoft technologies when even Microsoft themselves wait for third parties to roll them out before them...

  This is getting very frustrating. Please roll out Server 2012 in Azure soon.

  You can't seriously tell me we still have to VOTE on this??!! Come on MS - give us 4.5 support for Azure :)

  I also suggest better coordination between releases and availability on azure in future. I have updated my application with 4.5 async, but can't run on azure. I don't want to do a franken-upgrade. Now have to retrofit to an older .net and less ideal async model.
