Data Center Abstraction

Ultimately cloud is collection of hardware in Data Centers


Racks, Routers, Blades
Compute Storage Networking


Azure Fabric enforces Constraints for SLA
Highly available Redundant Performant

What is Cloud Computing

Reduce capital & operations costs Simplify application deployment & management Application & infrastructure flexibility Simplify scaling to internet scale Cost effectively handle peak loads Focus on new functionality & not infrastructure

Pay only for what you use
