Microsoft Azure

Microsoft Azure is Microsoft’s cloud platform. It includes infrastructure services such as virtual machines, storage, and networks, plus application hosting, identity, analytics, security, serverless, and a long list of managed services.

The Azure posts here tend to be hands-on: Bicep and Terraform deployments, Logic Apps, Functions, networking, KQL, virtual desktops, and the small operational details that show up once the portal demo is over.

Azure works best when the surrounding pieces are tidy. Resource groups, naming, tags, identity, RBAC, networking, diagnostics, and cost controls are not decoration. They are what stop a subscription becoming a junk drawer with a monthly invoice.
