Today's Story Highlights

Microsoft Hands Cloud Data Control to German Trustee
Microsoft announced it will offer its Azure, Office 365 and Dynamics CRM
cloud services to business clients using two Germany-based data centers
hosted by a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom. The arrangement will protect
the integrity and privacy of customer data, the company said. The data
centers will be under the control of T-Systems, a unit of Deutsche
Telekom, which will act as data trustee.

T-Mobile Opens Streaming-Video Buffet
T-Mobile on Wednesday announced Binge On, a plan that lets qualified
customers Netflix and chill as much as they want. It's the type of move
meant to shake up the wireless industry and to cultivate more T-Mobile
loyalists. Beginning this Sunday, certain customers can consume
streaming content from several popular services without having it count
against their data plans.

security firm Secure Islands. It will pay between $78 million and $150

the Azure Rights Management Service.
