Azure Regions: Azure data centers are distributed worldwide, organized into regions. Each region is a separate geographical area with multiple data centers. Azure customers can choose the regions where they want to deploy their resources, enabling them to optimize for latency, data residency, and disaster recovery.
Resource Groups: Resource groups are logical containers that group Azure resources together. They help with the organization and management of resources related to a specific application or project. Resource groups can be used to control access, monitor costs, and simplify resource management.
Azure Virtual Network: Azure provides the capability to create virtual networks that mimic traditional on-premises networks in the cloud. This allows you to securely connect and isolate your Azure resources, set up VPNs, and configure network security groups for fine-grained control over traffic flow.
Compute Services: Azure offers various compute options, including Virtual Machines (VMs), Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Azure Functions, and more. These services enable you to run applications and workloads tailored to your needs.
Storage Services: Azure provides scalable and durable storage solutions, such as Azure Blob Storage, Azure File Storage, and Azure Disk Storage. These services can be used for storing data, backups, and media files.
