Azure services that don't require region to be specified
Following is the current list of Azure services that operate globally and do not require customers to specify a particular region when using the service:
- Service Fabric
- SQL Data Warehouse
- Traffic Manager
- DNS
- CDN
- BizTalk Services
- Azure Active Directory
- Multi-Factor Authentication
- Visual Studio Application Insights
- Azure Resource Manager
- Not all services may be available in a particular region or data center (for example, the G-series VMs are only available from 3 data centers)
- Data centers in a region (currently, Australia & India) may not be available to businesses not directly operating in the country where that Azure Region is.
- The cost of Azure services may vary significantly for some services across data centers (Thought: if just an internet presence for an entity's website is required without up-time or latency concerns, what would be the cheapest DC to host it from?)
