We have just updated Data Synchronisation Studio so that you can connect to a SQL Azure database. Previously you couldn’t browse the Databases and Schema when trying to connect, SQL Azure prevents calling the Database Schema tables directly from the OleDb provider for some reason this is all fixed now in Data Sync.

We have been testing some simple synchronisations between a local SQL Server and SQL Azure and so far found that writing data to SQL Azure to be pretty slow once we had some data in there the compare was pretty quick and any updates after that were also quick.
