2. Azure Application Services
These services help you develop, deploy, and maintain various
applications on the Azure platform. Let’s explore Azure AI, Azure
Analytics, and Azure IoT services in more detail.

3. Azure Compute Services
Azure compute services are the hosting services responsible for the
hosting and running of application workloads. Here’s a look at two of the
most frequently used Azure Compute Services - Azure Virtual Machines
(VMs) and Azure Container Service.

4. Azure AI
Microsoft Azure gives you quick access to AI services and helps you
optimize business processes across your organization, engage with
customers, and empower your employees. Developers can create
engaging and interactive applications on Azure’s AI Platform which offers
cutting-edge AI capabilities such as NLP, speech recognition, voice
synthesis, face detection, video indexing, and text analytics. The Microsoft
Azure Bot Service releases intelligent agents on different platforms, which
can be used to create intelligent chat applications

5. Azure Analytics
With Microsoft Azure, you can process and analyze large amounts of data
to make intelligent critical business decisions with Azure’s analytics suite.
It allows you to run complicated queries across a huge set of data and
gives you valuable and actionable insights.
The analytics solution delivers an interactive real-time workspace to data
engineers, data scientists, and business analysts working on common
projects, thus enabling them to quickly perform real-time analysis of large
data sets on different topics.

6. Azure Internet of Things (IoT)
Azure IoT provides users with a platform and a range of services to allow
the development of IoT solutions without reinventing the wheel. Azure’s
IoT Central (SaaS) gives you pre-configured solutions, while Azure IoT
solution accelerators offer flexibility to develop a custom solution based on
your organizational needs. Azure IoT Hub is the core platform (PaaS) that
supports Azure IoT Central and Azure IoT solution accelerators. Azure IoT
also offers numerous SDKs and integration support to connect a range of
IoT devices and gather insights from data with advanced analytics and
visualization.

7. Azure Storage
Microsoft Azure’s data storage service delivers secure and scalable cloud
storage for structured and unstructured data. Using Azure Storage, you
are ensured of safe integration of your on-premises data with the cloud
data. Azure Storage supports several popular storage options such as
blob, queue, file, and NoSQL. You can store data of any size, from a small
blob to a large file, as per your business requirements, without a negative
impact on the production environment.

8. Azure DevOps
Azure DevOps automates the software delivery process and boosts your
software development capabilities by providing a better alternative to self-
managed CI/CD servers and open-source DevOps tools. Microsoft Azure
DevOps technology empowers you with hassle-free delivery with its fast
and reliable tools. It is an extensible platform that has the capability to
augment your existing tools and IDEs and offer several integrations in the
Marketplace.

9. Azure Virtual Machines (VMs)
Microsoft Azure Virtual Machine (VM) is an on-demand, scalable
computing resource, which does not require any physical hardware, which
also eliminates maintenance cost, giving you the flexibility of virtualization.
Cloud administrators simply need to select the operating system,
configure required resources, and create the webserver – all of which can
be accomplished within a few minutes.

10. Azure Container Service
Microsoft Azure helps users leverage the modern container-based
development practices and microservice architecture you can
migrate.NET applications to microservice using Windows Server
containers with Azure Service Fabric. You can also use Azure Kubernetes
Service to scale and orchestrate Linux Containers. You have the option to
choose between Docker Hub and Azure Container Registry to store
images and deploy them to any preferred target. It further simplifies the
configuration process and optimizes it on the cloud. It also consumes less
space as compared to VMs and starts instantly, thereby speeding up the
process.

11. Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN)
Azure CDN allows the distribution of large files by delivering high
bandwidth content and reduce the download time. It caches the file to an
Azure data center that is closest to the user’s location, thus lowering the
latency to a great extent and decrease the load on the application by
relieving it from the whole process of content delivery. End-users derive
the main benefit from this service as it delivers an enhanced user
experience for them.
