What Hacker News says
3 sources+1. he's been extremely supportive of our Python & node.js efforts in visual studio. a while back i gave him a demo of PTVS and he strongly encouraged & supported us in putting Python on Azure. it was the renaissance of Python at microsoft in a way.

In Microsoft Names Scott Guthrie as Permanent Enterprise ChiefThe Azure API is much more complex that any other providers: implementing it without introducing a dependency on the Azure Python SDK [1] is going to be complex. Just have a look at its source code (e.g. [2] and [3]) to get an idea.
All drivers available in Apache Libcloud have been implemented without introducing a dependency on a custom SDK. Why make an exception for Azure? Note that the complexity does not come from the Azure Python client API but rather from the Azure REST API that is in my opinion much more complicated that any other provider's.
Azure has some specific idiosyncrasies (such as deployments, certificates management, VM images that first need to be transferred to a blob container) that make it harder to fit in the simple and unified Libcloud API.
