What are Azure Virtual Machines?

Azure Virtual Machines (VMs) are on-demand, scalable computing resources that give you the flexibility of virtualization without needing to buy and maintain physical hardware. You have full control over the operating system and software running on the VM.

Key Features

Azure VMs support a wide range of operating systems, sizes, and pricing options, and integrate with Azure's networking, storage, and security services for building complete cloud solutions.

Common Use Cases

Azure VMs are commonly used for hosting applications, running test and development environments, and extending on-premises data centers into the cloud as part of a hybrid cloud strategy.
