Azure Cloud- How Azure Works

 How Azure Works

Hi All, Here we will take an basis architictural understanding of Azure Cloud. I has prefered microsoft portal to understand same.

I have taken an video from Microsoft Portal to make it easy to understand 'How Azure Works'

1- Fabric Controller- It is cloud management software.  it is brain of Azure Services that  analyses  the process and make decisions.All intelligent taks are performed by fabric controller. Like, FC also brings up new machines into the cluster when required or when existing machines go down for  any reason. Resource allocations and monitering. 

Remember-

  • Every Cluster has fabric controller
  • Each Vm in cluster has a fabric agent.
  • Fabric Agent has read and write access on application configuration files.
  • Fabric.exe and FabricGateWay.exe

2- Orchestrator- It is front end. it  hosts Restful api's, web services, Internal Azure Database used for all functions and cloud performances. It handles the user requests



Server (Blades)+ Power Unit + Network Switch Unit--->Racks(like R0 & R1)---> Cluster

Request Handleing Process-  First, Requirement  as a request raised through azure portal. it goes to Orchestrator through API's. Orchestrator sends all configuration details to fabric controll. fabric controll take an decision on bases of provide configuration details from the orchestrator.

Still on this blog i am working to make it more useable.

Thanks for your moral support.

Cloud Terminology

Cloud Terminology  Hi Guys, Before moving forward to learn Azure Cloud. We have to keep in mind below given Cloud Termenology which will help you to understand simple meaning of  these terms in Cloud.  This list will be updated as we will find any term that should be shared with you guys. Compute SAAS- Software as a Service PAAS- Plateform as a Service IAAS- Infrastructure as a Service Availability HA- High Availability Scalability Elasticity Agility- Services On Demand without Human Interaction. Fault Tolerance Disaster Recovery CapEx OpEx Availability Set Region - Each region is paired with another region. Microsoft provided recently to change the region or certain services. Geography - There are 5 Geography like Americas, Europe ,Asia Paciffic, Middle East and africa. It helps to handle data policies. Regional pair Availability Zone - Each Region has a zone but  Not All region have multiple zone. Fault Domain Update Domain Virtual Machine  Resource - Like VM,...

Very common interview Question about Azure

  What is the difference between PHS (Password Hash Synchronization) and PTA(Password Though Authentication)? PHS- In this Approach, Password is synchronized with AAD. Authentication occurs in cloud. PTA- In this Approach, Password is not synchronized with AAD. Authentication occurs on On-Premises AD. What is the difference between User Administrator and Global Administrator User Administrator can delete any non admin user. Admin user can be deleted only by Global Administrator.

What is Availability Options in Azure Cloud?

 Hi  Guys ,  Basic Thought cames in our mind when we are creating an vitrual machine. So today we will discuss  'What is Availibility Options?'. Before moving forward, please see red colour circule in Image. Availability Option Dropdown is there in image. in this dropdown, there are two options are available to choosen. Create a virtual machine Availability  Set Availability Zone Availability Set -  It protects failure within datacenter. It has two domain which are given below- Fault Domain (FD)-  It is Physical separation of VMs  It goes up to 5 fault domains in a availability set Update Domain (UD)- It goes to 20 update domains in a availability set.  It is a logical separation.  At any point of time, only one UD can be updated. Suppose-UD0 is updated right now. It means only VMs which are belongs to UD0 will be down for update. See the image for more clarity- Availability Set ...
