Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft to build, test, deploy, and manage applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centers.

It caters for:

  • Software as a service (SaaS)

  • Platform as a service (PaaS)

  • Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)

In addition, Microsoft Azure supports different programming languages, tools and frameworks (including Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems).

A Microsoft Office 365 tenant is a regional location that provides cloud services dedicated to an organization (e.g. Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Teams, etc). It falls within the overall O365 Data Center and can be seen as an organization's sandbox environment, housing all its digital assets (e.g. users, domains, subscriptions and data).

If you access this program from within the Setup Options program, no additional security check is performed as the system assumes your operator code has been granted the necessary access rights.
