Offer me a Windows Azure dedicated cloud, either hosted on my premises or with third-party provider.

Earlier this year, we announced the Windows Azure Platform Appliance, which will allow customers to run the Windows Azure environment in their own data centers or via a third-party hosting provider. Look for more announcements about the Platform Appliance in 2011.

What if a data center is affected by a horrible disaster, and all your data is lost. Think of the Japan earthquake or Amazon's cloud outage.
What should you have prepared in your architecture, code, data models, api's and connections, for your application to be able to utomatically fail-back to another data center?

Naked domains are an issue, because you would need the redirect to the subdomain (e.g. www) which is hosted elsewhere. Global offerings from MS that integrate well, offer easy configuration and one-stop solution would be appreciated.
