Compute resources established within Azure can be configured to utilize either public IP addresses or private addresses, depending on whether they need external accessibility.

Mobile: These products and services empower developers to create cloud applications for mobile devices, notification services, and support for backend tasks, as well as tools for constructing application programming interfaces (APIs).

Analytics: These services furnish analytics and storage solutions for services within your Azure environment. They encompass features for real-time analytics, big data analytics, machine learning, and business intelligence.

Storage: Azure offers scalable cloud storage for both structured and unstructured data. It also provides persistent and archival storage solutions.

Security: Specialized products and services in this category aid in the detection, prevention, and response to various cloud security threats. They encompass data security features such as encryption keys and data loss prevention solutions.
