Use cases
- find reference architectures for building workloads on azure
- learn cloud design patterns and best practices
- compare and choose azure services for a workload
- design a chat application architecture on azure
- plan hybrid connectivity between on-premises and azure
- guidance on choosing a data store in azure
When to choose
- you are designing or reviewing solutions on azure and want authoritative guidance
- you need proven cloud design patterns and architecture styles
- you want to compare azure service options for compute, data, or AI workloads
When to avoid
- you need documentation for AWS, GCP, or other cloud providers
- you need runnable software or code libraries rather than guidance documents
- you need deep hands-on tutorials rather than architectural guidance
