AZURE INTERIVIEW QUESTIONS
HANDS ON TIPS FOR CRACKING THE INTERVIEW
Azure is a cloud computing platform which was launched by Microsoft in February 2010. It is an open and flexible cloud platform which helps in development, data storage, service hosting, and service management. The Azure tool hosts web applications over the internet with the help of Microsoft data centers.
Types of Azure Clouds
There are mainly three types of clouds in Microsoft Azure are:
PAAS
SAAS
IASS
Azure as IaaS
IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service) is the foundational cloud platform layer. This Azure service is used by IT administrators for processing, storage, networks or any other fundamental computer operations. It allows users to run arbitrary software.
Advantages:
It offers efficient design time portability
It is advisable for the application which needs complete control
IaaS offers quick transition of services to clouds
The apparent benefit of laaS is that it frees you from the concerns of setting up many physical or virtual machines.
Helps you to access, monitor and manage datacenters
Disadvantages of Iaas:
Plenty of security risks from unpatched servers
Some companies have defined processes for testing and updating on-premise servers vulnerabilities. This cannot be done with Azure.
Azure as PaaS
PaaS is a computing platform which includes an operating system, programming language execution environment, database or web services. This Azure service is used by developers and application providers.
As its name suggests, this platform is provided to the client to develop and deploy software. It allows the client to focus on application development instead of worrying about hardware and infrastructure. It also takes care of operating systems, networking and servers issues.
Advantages:
The total cost is low as the resources are allocated on demand and servers are automatically added or subtracted.
Azure is less vulnerable because servers are automatically checked for all known security issues
The entire process is not visible to the developer, so it does not have a risk of a data breach
Disadvantages:
Portability issues can occur when you use PaaS services
There may be different environment at Azure, so the application needs to adapt accordingly.
Azure As SaaS
SaaS (Software as a Service) is software which is centrally hosted and managed. It is a single version of the application is used for all customers. You can scale out to multiple instances. This helps you to ensure the best performance in all locations. The software is licensed through a monthly or annual subscription. MS Exchange, Office, Dynamics are offered as a SaaS
