I am doing some preliminary research on Windows Azure. The idea is to move 200+ ASP classic websites to Windows Azure. I am wondering if this is possible and feasible? Can I host that many websites on a single VM? Also note that each website needs to have its own set of email addresses.
There’s absolutely no reason why you couldn’t host all those sites on Azure VM (assuming you’re talking about the preview Virtual Machine functionality). You get your own isolated machine, with its own IIS and IP. What you put on it is up to you, but it’s no different than getting a VPS from any other company (rackspace etc.).
Obviously this is assuming that your sites are not very resource heavy and the memory etc. you get with different VM sizes can support the use.
