	Description:		There's a piece, called The Real Value of Azure Stack, that caught my eye recently. This seems a little promotional, as lots of vendors are mentioned in the piece, but the gist of the piece is that one of the largest line items for most enterprise IT shops is software development and maintenance. Part of Microsoft's strategy to address this is with Azure Stack, a hybrid solution that allows you to build a platform in your data center that can extend to the cloud if you need it. Software development is hard, and from what I can see now, Azure Stack still doesn't have a great data story. While one can develop against SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc., these databases instances used would be the same standalone services that we would use without Azure Stack. The platform does provide some features that smoother the use of SQL Server or MySQL, but it's a far cry from the Azure SQL Database or Azure MySQL Database offerings or even CosmosDB. I hope to see those on Azure Stack at some point, perhaps with lower performance capabilities and promises. Read the rest of Can Azure Stack Reduce Software Development Costs?
