Azure Limitations

Note - Microsoft constantly updates its Azure services. Therefore information provided here & in the links may change

Some limitations of Azure Services (IaaS & PaaS) -

* While the top public cloud providers are considered enablers of hyperscale computing providing almost limitless resources on demand, there are limits that need to be reviewed to ensure they don't cause impediments for unique or unconventional use cases. While this constraint may not be an issue for most and there may be workarounds to address them, the Subscription & service limits have to be verified.

* While a majority of Azure Services & their features are available across all regions, not all may be available in specific regions and in desired pricing tiers. This has to be verified prior to usage.

* Some Azure Services & their features may be modified, removed or retired. Though Microsoft provides notice prior to the changes, the impact of the change has to be borne by the user.

* Following links list the limitations of specific Azure Services -
- Azure Virtual Machines
