Are you one of those who heard the buzzword “Azure Cloud” and landed here? Don’t worry, you have reached the right place. In this blog, you will learn everything to get started with Microsoft Azure. You can learn more from the Azure solution architect training.
Some companies offer cloud services. These companies are called Cloud Providers. In the image shown below, we have listed some of the top cloud providers. AWS being the largest Cloud Provider, you must be wondering why you should learn about the other cloud providers, right?
Good Question! But, what if your beloved AWS goes down? Ever thought of that? You cannot rely on only one service for your business. You need a standby for situation like this. Hence, it becomes imperative to know about the other cloud providers as well. Having said that, Azure is the second largest cloud provider!
The image below shows the percentage of the companies who have adopted the respective cloud providers as their “primary” IaaS partners.
You can clearly see from above image that after AWS, people are adopting Microsoft Azure.
Let’s move ahead in this blog and understand What is Azure.
Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing platform created by Microsoft that developers and IT professionals use to build, deploy, and manage applications through their global network of data centers. To know more about it, join our Azure master program.

I have discussed all the services in detail in my next blog: Azure Tutorial.
First and foremost, you should analyze, what your application is about? Is it something that requires you to be worried about the underlying infrastructure? Is it something that requires a database? Is it something which will require monitoring?
So, once you know all the requirements of your application, you can choose a domain and, hence, a service.
Like for example, if you want to deploy an application on Azure, which does not require you to worry about the underlying architecture, which service will you choose?
Well, in the computing section, there is a service called Web App. You can just upload your application, and Azure does the rest for you. It’s that simple!
Of course, you wouldn’t know about any of these services without using them, right? That’s why Azure created an amazing free tier option.
Who is eligible for this free tier?
Every customer from the time he/she registers on Azure, receives the free tier option, and is eligible for the same.
How shall this help?
