Microsoft has a lesser known Azure Gov Cloud specifically because of this that is disconnected from public Cloud. This includes dedicated staff with vetted secret clearances for access to those systems. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/explore/global-infrastruct...
Can anyone make use of this?

I’m setting up a system with multiple AAD B2C tenants, so I get the joy of switching back and forth between the primary tenant and the B2C tenants frequently (at least until I can finish automating enough of the B2C provisioning bits). I don’t yet have enough context to fully evaluate against cognito. It may end up being nice to have B2C as a first class AAD tenant, but until I get far enough along to realize those b…
I have multiple chrome profiles for this. However, despite switching from one subscription to another to access each different AAD tenant across multiple chrome profiles, it seems that Azure "remembers" the subscription you last accessed, across profiles. It's as if the last subscription you accessed is tagged to your Azure user server side rather being a blob of client side state. This is deeply annoying as well, es…

AWS and GCP both have ~100% uptime in every region for VMs this month. Meanwhile the majority of Azure regions have had various outages in the same period: https://cloudharmony.com/status-of-compute

Firefox containers is the solution to this headache for almost every multi tenanted service. I used to have it installed only for those tasks when I was working in consultancy.

Nothing is forcing companies to sign an Azure contract with Microsoft, and go with AWS or GCP instead. Perhaps they are just doing something right. But I didn't use Azure myself. I'd be curious to know what's good or bad about it compared to GCP and AWS.
For a development team, here's an example of something good about Azure: Microsoft gives us dev accounts with monthly Azure credits (e.g. $100) and you cannot spend more when those credits run out because there is no credit card etc. behind that account to charge the excess. Azure just like other cloud services (I've used AWS but as I understand it GCP is the same) doesn't believe in timely billing. You can and will…
It sounds to me some legacy Windows 2000 spaghettini fettuccini is powering some parts of azure.
