3. What are Azure Services?
With nearly 1 billion active users, Azure offers different types of cloud services that are
tailored to cater to the diverse needs of numerous industries. Currently, Azure provides
more than 200 cloud services, mainly as Platform as a service (PaaS), Software as a
service (SaaS), and Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) solutions. In addition to those
core services, Azure offers many additional services including:
1. Machine Learning
2. IOT
3. Migration
4. Data management
5. Security
6. Development and Integration

4. Azure service categories based on cloud computing service models
All Microsoft Azure services can be classified into the following categories based
on the cloud computing service model they leverage.
1. Platform as a Service (Paas)
PaaS is a cloud-based service model that offers the necessary resources to
develop and deploy software applications. It supports the entire software
application development lifecycle, eliminating the need to manage infrastructure.
PaaS operates on a pay-as-you-go model, enabling users to purchase Azure
resources and access them securely over the Internet.

5. 2. Software as a Service (SaaS)
Azure SaaS is a service model that allows users to access and utilize cloud-based applications like
mail, calendars, and office tools. It allows organizations to deploy applications quickly with minimal
costs. Azure manages the hardware and software, such as infrastructure and middleware on your
behalf. Therefore, it ensures the high availability and security of those apps.
Following are the IaaS services that Azure currently provides.
Analytics - Data Catalog, PowerBI Embedded
Development - Azure DevOps, Visual Studio App Center
IOT - IOT Central

6. 3. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
IaaS is a cloud service model that provides cloud resources like compute and storage on demand.
It also uses a pay-as-you-go model, offering the flexibility to scale resources based on your varying
workloads and traffic. It enables organizations to quickly adapt to changing user needs and
improve the reliability of their infrastructure.
Compute: Azure Vmware Azure VMware Solution, Dedicated Host, Virtual Desktop, Virtual
Machines, VM Scale Sets
Storage: Azure Storage, HPC Cache, Managed Disks
Networking: Azure Firewall, ExpressRoute, Load Balancer, Network Watcher, Private Link, Traffic
Manager, Virtual Network, Virtual WAN, VPN Gateway.
