SQL Azure now supports Database copy.

This update is part of SQL Azure Service Update 4. Also, this service update includes:

• Development: How-to Topics (SQL Azure Database) on MSDN Development Center.
• Microsoft project Microsoft Project Code-Named “Houston” (Houston), a light weight web-based database management tool for SQL Azure.

Database copy allows you to make a real-time complete snapshot of your database into a different server in the data center. This new copy feature is the first step in backup support for SQL Azure, allowing you to get a complete backup of any SQL Azure database before making schema or database changes to the source database.
