Microsoft Azure offers an abundance of on-demand computing services designed for efficient building in the cloud , with four different kinds of cloud computing : infrastructure as a service ( IaaS ), platform as a service ( PaaS ), software as a service ( SaaS ), and serverless .

A Microsoft spokesperson told Data Centre Dynamics : “ Across the globe , we have seen unprecedented growth in the cloud . With this surge , coupled with macro trends impacting the whole industry , we ’ ve taken steps to address customer increases in capacity while also expediting server deployment in our data centres .

" Our priority remains ensuring business continuity for customers . In addition to managing and planning for growth , we actively load balance as needed . If it does become necessary to put capacity restrictions in place , we will first restrict trials and internal workloads to prioritise growth of existing customers .”
