Microsoft Azure isn’t just a cloud solution provider to host workloads and transform data center applications in the cloud. As you’d expect, Microsoft added the horsepower of data analytics to ingest, analyze, and monitor data — and not just a few hundred records. I’m talking about millions of records that are stored in Azure each day, each hour, or even each minute. The data could come from a world-renowned business-to-business (B2B) or business-to-consumer (B2C) company or your smartphone using Internet of Things (IoT) sensors. To add the icing on the cake, Azure also offers a host of opportunities to intelligently learn from the data patterns and make intelligent recommendations with the help of Azure Machine Learning and Azure Cognitive Services. This chapter reviews the primary products you should become acclimated to and consider configuring when immersing yourself in Microsoft Azure.
