What is Azure

Azure is a cloud computing platform and infrastructure created by Microsoft for building, deploying, and managing applications and services through a global network of Microsoft-managed data centers. In relation to IoT (Internet of Things), Azure provides a set of cloud services that enable developers to build, deploy, and manage IoT solutions and applications. These services allow for collecting, analyzing, and visualizing IoT data from a variety of devices, integrating with other Azure services for additional processing and analysis, and managing and deploying IoT devices at scale.
