New Features in Microsoft VS 2010
Cloud Development
With Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio, developers can build, debug and deploy services and applications for Azure, the new cloud environment Microsoft announced in October 2008.

Democratising Application Lifecycle Management
Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2010 will deliver new capabilities that embrace the needs of the users in the lifecycle – from architects to developers, from project managers to testers. Among the great new functionality in Visual Studio Team System 2010:
· Discover and identify existing code assets and architecture with the new Architecture Explorer
· Design and share multiple diagram types, including use case, activity and sequence diagrams
· Improve testing efforts with tooling for better documentation of test scenarios and more thorough collection of test data
