The Azure infrastructure architecture map

The Azure infrastructure architecture map (as shown in Figure 3.1) is intended as your Azure infrastructure compass. It should help you to deal with the typical duties of an infrastructure architect, which we described in Chapter 1, Getting Started as an Azure Architect. Unlike the solution architecture map, which was more high-level, this map is a vertical exploration of infrastructure topics. It is by no means the holy grail, but it should help you to grasp the broad infrastructure landscape at a glance. Throughout this chapter, we will describe its various elements, and apply context using real-world implementations:
