      I have a role that only processes something once a day, for 20 minutes....yet I got charged for it aall 24 hours - this is ridiculous...make it possible to only run a role during certain times...that way you can provision them for a short amount of time each day and we don't get charged as much for doing nothing...

        At PDC 2010 Microsoft announced the Extra Small Instance, which will be priced at $0.05 per compute hour in order to make the process of development, testing and trial easier. This will make it affordable for developers interested in running smaller applications on the platform. A beta of this role will be available before the end of 2010.

        Please let us know if this addresses your needs for a more cost effective Azure offering.
