Try to compare performance of their Linux VMs against Amazon and Google, then come back and tell me if it's first class or not.

- MichaelGG 11y agoEh Azure's performance (and particularly perf/price) is way off in general. It's weird (the SSD model is just dumb). Windows VMs on Azure regularly get "lost" on reboot and require several resizes to come back. I've been using Azure for a couple of years and it still remains just, well, messy, to put it politely. I don't think it says anything about their stance on Linux that AWS and Google do a better job.
- melted 11y agoHow is it "first class" then if it's like 35% slower on CPU-bound workloads?
- slavak 11y agoIf the Windows VMs on Azure are just as slow then that's the textbook definition of "first-class citizen." Your point would only stand if Azure ran Windows VMs as-far-as or faster than their competition, but ran Linux VMs much slower.
