Azure secret juice are Microsoft shops.

When you are already into some combination of Office, Windows desktops, Active Directory, .NET, SQL Server, Github Copilot, then Azure feels like the natural cloud transition.

Azure is exceptionally broken though. It only exists for those who don’t want to put all their eggs in the Amazon basket, and because Microsoft has an old relationship with many large enterprises and is good at selling to them. No body is picking azure based on a technical reason as all services are horrific to use.

		Amazon is hardly anything amazing. I much rather deal with Azure than the complexity maze of AWS products, IAM configurations, primitive Web based IDE tooling and shell. Amazon would never had come up with something like VSCode, which was born as the Azure Web IDE.

Office, Windows and SQL server get some hate now and then but are nowhere near as buggy as Azure.

		All cloud vendors are buggy, and if you aren't paying enough there are only bots to talk to.
