Note
A landing zone is a general cloud framework that sets up the core structure for all workloads. Each use case (like an app, data pipeline, or API) then builds on top of this framework, using the same environments (Dev → Test → UAT → Prod) and CI/CD pipelines to move code safely into production. It’s general by design, but applied per use case.

- What's New on Azure?
Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing platform that provides a wide range of services for building, deploying, and managing applications and infrastructure. It offers scalability, flexibility, and global reach.
-
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS):
- Provides businesses with the infrastructure (both hardware and software) needed to operate efficiently and at capacity.
- Examples: Virtual machines (VMs), storage, networking components.
- Use cases: Hosting websites, running custom applications, managing data storage.
-
Platform as a Service (PaaS):
- Gives developers a workspace and tools to build, deploy, and manage applications without worrying about underlying infrastructure.
- Examples: Azure App Service, Azure Functions, Azure SQL Database.
- Use cases: Web and mobile app development, serverless computing.
-
Software as a Service (SaaS):
- Provides hosted applications managed and upgraded by the service provider.
- Examples: Office 365, Dynamics 365, Azure DevOps.
- Use cases: Collaboration, productivity, customer relationship management (CRM).
Here are some important Azure products within each category:
- Azure Virtual Machines (VMs): Create and manage VMs in the cloud.
