Where is Microsoft azure in? 2A02:C7C:50C6:1400:98F2:41D4:B138:E161 (talk) 13:32, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't understand your comment, but a lot of this article reads like an advertisement written by Microsoft. This is now being promoted by Microsoft as a "linux" but in reality it is a cloud computing system, as the article says: "Microsoft Azure utilizes a specialized operating system with the same name to power its "fabric layer".[54] This cluster is hosted at Microsoft's data centers and is responsible for managing computing and storage resources and allocating them to applications running on the Microsoft Azure platform." In addition, the article notes: "Microsoft has acknowledged that the U.S. government can access data even if the hosting company is not American and the data is outside the U.S.[80][81][contradictory] To address concerns related to privacy and security, Microsoft has established the Microsoft Azure Trust Center." This article needs some attention from someone who knows about Microsoft Azure. As for me, I don't need to know anything more about it than that it comes from Microsoft. Wastrel Way (talk) Eric

Negligent Cybersecurity practices
Should facts about Microsoft negligent cybersecurity practices be hidden from this article? 84.78.242.206 (talk) 19:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)


 * yes, the article is specific about the azure platform, while the information provided is about all of microsoft's cybersecurity and not just the azure in question, and should be placed
 * the information in question which is valid, on the Microsoft Caorporation wiki. 45.181.33.196 (talk) 00:53, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
 * As you can read in the referenced article, Microsoft is not being negligent in all products, but mostly in Azure. We need to keep a reference to Microsoft negligent behaviour only in the products were they are being negligent. Jmsrobinson (talk) 07:26, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

, your sentence is inappropriate for multiple reasons. It violates WP:UNDUE by disproportionately highlighting criticism without a balanced inclusion of other opinions. The use of language like "has been criticized" veers into MOS:WEASEL territory. Also, the sentence is inconsistent with WP:LEAD, as it lacks necessary context and specificity. This is not to say that negligent security practices should not be mentioned on Wikipedia; rather, the issue is with the manner of their presentation here — a single, problematic sentence lacking in context and due weight. intforce (talk) 09:33, 16 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Yes, please, include other opinions. We should not hide facts about the hack Microsoft had and the negligent behaviour they enagage. I can move it to another section if you think this is not important enought for the lead. Jmsrobinson (talk) 11:43, 16 September 2023 (UTC)


 * , before editing the page again, I suggest you read the relevant policies and seriously address the concerns that have been brought up. You can't expect others to fix the problematic material you'd like to put up there. Please do not engage in an edit war. intforce (talk) 11:52, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Please, read relevant policies, do not remove it again until reaching a consensus. Jmsrobinson (talk) 12:03, 16 September 2023 (UTC)

Logo needs to be updated ?
The blue A is not the current logo for Microsoft Azure, as far as I understood. Please verify and adapt. see e.g. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/trademarks 2003:C5:CF47:2800:A82F:A392:243:7A04 (talk) 21:53, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
