Windows Azure and DNS name resolution

Before you begin deploying virtual machines or role instances in Windows Azure, you need to consider and plan for how the DNS names of these virtual machines will be resolved from your on-premises network. Windows Azure provides its own name resolution service that can be used for resolving instance names within the same cloud service. For example, if you have two virtual machine instances named SRV-A and SRV-B running within the same cloud service named CLOUD-C, you don’t need to deploy and configure a DNS server in order for each server to resolve the fully-qualified domain name of the other server.

If, however, your virtual machine instances are running in separate cloud services, Windows Azure name resolution won’t suffice. You’ll need to use a DNS solution of your choice for such purposes, for example a public DNS server, a DNS server belonging to your Internet service provider, or a DNS server on your corporate network.

For a comprehensive list of the different name resolution scenarios possible for Windows Azure and the solutions you can choose from, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/jj156088.aspx.
