Hi Kapil!!

Thanks for the comment! I am glad you like it :)
I actually don't know if it's possible with the other clouds as access to
the APIs is really different (that publishsettings file is really a cool
feature of MS Azure)

We'll be looking at it anyway over the upcoming weeks, to make the
experience better (see Marco's comment up in the chain) and get it beyond
alpha stage.

Best,
Samuel

Best,
Samuel
