It looks like an ambitious plan.

You would need to create wildcard dns record *.yourdomain.com pointing to your server IP.

Application code would need to handle different subdomain abc.yourdomain.com and return correct content.

Yes, i know about wildcard. But i`am wondering what should i choose. I mean Virtual Machine or i can, somehow, manage it with WebSites ? What kind of service i should choose to achive my goal?
For example: main engine would be on virtual machine and when new user will be registered system will create new storage in azure where all files gonna be kept for that user.
Or there should be another architecture?
