pizza as a service
Think of Azure like a pizza. It’s a cloud environment where you can own as much or as little of the hosting, configuration and customization as you choose. Just as you might choose to order a pizza with the toppings you want rather than make it yourself, Azure allows you to fully customize your experience, from conception to delivery. Learn more in our Pizza as a Service blog.
