A fully managed application platform for modern applications and microservices * Deploy apps from code or containers * Avoids creation of complex infrastructure * Can be confused with Azure App Service * Both are designed to host applications * Azure Container Apps: * Offer a flexible environment * Specifically for use with Containers * Azure App Service: * Specializes in hosting web apps/APIs * Not used for containerized applications Status: #idea Tags: az-

* Azure Container Instances offers serverless container execution * Ideal for quick development and testing * Supports batch jobs, microservices deployment, and specific workloads * Lightweight, less complex than AKS * Lacks AKS's full orchestration features Similar to AWS Fargate Status: #idea Tags: az-900, azure, Cloud References

* Use centralized dashboard to monitor costs * Apply budget caps for optimization * Analyze costs by service, resource group * Pinpoint high cost resources Status: #idea Tags: az-900, azure, Cloud, cloud-billing References

* Cloud-based integration service * Creates, schedules, orchestrates data workflows Streamlines ETL processes** * Handles diverse data sources (SQL and NoSQL) and formats * Automates workflows for flexibility Status: #idea Tags: az-900, azure, Cloud, data processing References

* Used to store and analyze large volumes of data * Combines Blob Storage with file system for large data * Streamlines data access for analytics * Suits petabyte-scale structured to unstructured data * Ideal for complex big data analysis * Unifies diverse data in one space like a Library Similar to AWS S3 Status: #idea Tags: az-900, azure, Cloud References

Azure data redundancy duplicates data for availability during outages: * Locally-redundant storage (LRS) * Geo-redundant storage (GRS) * Zone-redundant storage (ZRS) * Geo-zone-redundant storage (GZRS) Similar to Multi Region, Multi Zone Status: #idea Tags: az-900, azure, Cloud References
