Azure
Use Azure for cloud infrastructure, integration, security and flexible application hosting. It gives ADC a strong base for scalable services and resilient deployment patterns.
ADC is deliberately Microsoft-focused. That is not about vendor loyalty for its own sake. It is about choosing a stack that makes prototyping faster, integration cleaner and production delivery easier to support.
Azure provides the cloud foundation, Fabric brings data and analytics together, and AI Foundry creates a practical route from experiment to AI-enabled applications and agent workflows.
Microsoft describes Azure as an open and flexible cloud platform, Fabric as an AI-powered analytics platform that unites data and services, and AI Foundry as an enterprise-grade platform for AI apps and agents. Together, they line up closely with ADC’s delivery philosophy.
Use Azure for cloud infrastructure, integration, security and flexible application hosting. It gives ADC a strong base for scalable services and resilient deployment patterns.
Use Fabric to bring ingestion, transformation, warehousing, semantic modelling, real-time analytics and reporting into one connected environment, with OneLake helping reduce unnecessary data movement.
Use AI Foundry to build, customise and manage AI applications with access to models, tools, orchestration and observability in one developer-friendly platform.
When the stack is familiar and well integrated, solution shaping becomes quicker and trade-offs become clearer earlier.
Reusable infrastructure patterns, standard deployment models and shared engineering approaches make build cycles faster and cleaner.
Governance, security, resilience and platform support matter. The Microsoft ecosystem provides the controls needed once solutions move into wider use.
