A practitioner reference for Azure architecture work. It covers decision guides across eleven domains, fifteen working calculators for SLA, cost, naming, and governance math, and reference material for sixty services with SLAs and pricing verified against Microsoft documentation. Built for architecture reviews, landing zone design, and the kind of governance work where being right matters.
Walk through the trade-offs when picking between AKS and Container Apps, defending a database choice, or choosing between Front Door and Application Gateway. Eleven domains, every service with SLA, tier, and the situation it fits.
Decision Guides 02 / ComputeWorking calculators for composite SLA across dependencies, monthly cost projections, CAF-compliant naming, tagging taxonomies, Well-Architected scoring, and landing zone topologies. Every value is computed against the same Microsoft-published data the rest of the site uses.
Tools 03 / Look UpDomain one-pagers where every service in the domain lives on a single page with SLA, starting price, and use case. Plus the Azure glossary for the acronyms that show up in every architecture doc.
ReferencesEach guide walks through service choices in one Azure domain. Selection criteria, SLA math, cost trade-offs, and the situation each service actually fits. Written from the angle of an architect defending a choice in a review.
Interactive calculators and generators that produce values you can defend in a review. Composite SLA across dependencies, monthly cost projections against real Azure pricing, CAF-compliant resource names, WAF assessment scoring against the five pillars.
Every service in a domain on a single page, with SLA, starting price, and a one-line use case. Plus the Azure glossary for the acronyms that show up in every architecture document but rarely get defined.
