- cost or the underlying platform (the O.S etc)
- availability (Azure being the primary channel, although its available on other clouds)
- openess of the environment and ecosystem
I think the latter is most important; many cloud services etc are first developed for Java and/or Linux, caching, databases (SQL and NoSQL), messaging etc thus the technologies to construct solutions are more readily available, also the vendor support is much broader...

Anyone have thoughts on. NET in cloud via Mono & Linux rather than Windows?
My limited experience is that it's compatible, but you must develop with
Mono otherwise there's a "porting" cost that can be quite high.
It's not just the libraries, it's the language core (ie. a for loop may
behave differently).
Regards,
Juan

I'm not an expert in any way, but with Mono 2.0 we found discrepancies
when developing with Mono and then running the code in the equivalent
Microsoft .NET runtime.
If I recall correctly it was related to the modification of items in a
collection inside a loop. Mono runtime was OK with that, Microsoft
runtime crashed.
It was very frustrating because it wasn't documented at all.
If you want to provide PaaS for .NET using Mono, I guess it's even worse
because you're going to run customer applications.
