What is Microsoft Azure
Microsoft Azure began as a Windows Server-based cloud platform but has since grown to become a very flexible cloud platform that enables developers to use any language, framework, or tool to build, deploy and manage applications. According to Microsoft, Azure features and services are exposed using open REST protocols. The Azure client libraries, which are available for multiple programming languages, are released under an open source license and hosted on GitHub.
