Microsoft’s Australian Azure data centres — aka local Xbox One servers — to begin operation next week

At Microsoft’s “Cloud Day” press event in the US, it was revealed that local Azure data centres would open in Melbourne and Sydney next week.

Local Australian partners have been testing Microsoft’s Azure cloud servers since last month.
