> Azure hosts a LOT of Linux. Not as much as AWS, but Linux runs exceptionally well. The article wasn’t referring to the hyper visor.

I went back and re-parsed the Reg sentence, and indeed, that probably does refer to the client, not the hypervisor.

Enlighten me -- what hypervisor is Azure using, standalone Windows Hyper-V Server I'd guess?

Microsoft’s data center platform is based around SCVMM (System Center Virtual Machine Manager). It’s a specialized hyper visor for cloud that manages HyperV as the host hypervisor.
