Two hundred reasons to not use Azure

I&#x27;m still fuming from when Azure cancelled my organisations PowerBI A1 instance account, and refused to explain why. We re-opened the account and got the report working. They cancelled it again.<p>A scientific reporting project trying PowerBI dead in the water.<p>I was called from leave, from the beach in Thailand, to try and untangle this mess. I couldn&#x27;t. I&#x27;m the &quot;linux guy&quot; but all the &quot;microsoft people&quot; were at their wits end and didn&#x27;t know what to do. A colossal kafkaesque maze mess of Microsoft support agents with cheerful &quot;have a nice day and is their anything else we can help you with&quot; emails canning the project, over and over. AND REFUSING TO EXPLAIN WHY.<p>=============================<p>Greetings for the day!<p>I have received an update from Account Research Team: As part of our strong commitment to the protection of our customers and our interest in preserving the quality and integrity of the Azure Marketplace, we perform supplementary reviews of accounts which may exhibit irregular or suspicious activity. Your account was selected for one of these reviews and after careful consideration, this account will remain closed.<p>Please understand that we keep security checks like these in place in order to protect the quality and integrity of the Azure Marketplace<p>=============================================================

$DAYJOB is spending a lot of money very quickly in a modernisation project of our core product. It&#x27;s being split into a micro-service architecture using Azure.<p>We&#x27;ve basically shipped 5% of the features but already to the point where compute and <i>logging</i> is costing &quot;too much&quot;. I&#x27;m not sure who made the decision to jump to Azure without doing even back-of-the-envelope estimates on this type of thing.<p>My real annoyances is that the support in Azure is some of the worst bottom of the barrel crap I&#x27;ve experienced.<p>- You have to open a support ticket to raise your limits on your subscriptions - and prepare to wait weeks with zero communication from microsoft if your region is contended.<p>- I&#x27;ve had people from the third party support companies directly contact me on teams chasing for me to close their tickets... HIGHLY unprofessional in my opinion. Tickets they have not been able to complete because it&#x27;s &quot;impossible&quot;:<p>- You cannot delete &#x27;views&#x27; of previous commits that may be leaking secrets in Azure DevOps. GitHub has an entire support category for this. Not for ADO, apparently it&#x27;s impossible according to support. Oh well, leaked secrets in the GUI for our repository forever, despite the commits no longer existing.<p>- Even their architect experts are useless; we want to separate our SaaS from our <i>company&#x27;s</i> Entra ID and even though it&#x27;s one of the &quot;legitimate&quot; reasons listed in their docs (ISV), all of their so-called experts don&#x27;t think this is wise, or at least is too bothersome for them to work out how entitlements work. Yes, let&#x27;s pollute our corporate tenant with service principles etc. of our hosted software.<p>Overall it has been a garbage experience, meanwhile $DAYJOB is hurtling down this path for strategic reasons (boils down to the CEO being told by customer CEOs that you need to be in the cloud to be considered a real company, despite buying our services for decades).<p>Azure could be pretty good to be honest - it just has bad support and even worse technical sales&#x2F;architect people.

If you&#x27;re reading this and thinking &quot;it can&#x27;t be that bad:&quot;<p>no, it really is.<p>On paper, Azure has everything you need and more.<p>In reality, using Azure is death by one hundred thousand cuts that&#x27;s smoothed over by an army of support engineers, TAMs, and PMs (seriously!) providing the best support I have ever seen. Seriously, they are everywhere. They&#x27;re probably reading this comment!<p>Enumerating them like this is SUCH A GREAT IDEA.<p>Here are some of the ones I experienced when I spent a year working seriously with Azure:<p>- I hope you like HTTP 409 CONFLICT<p>- Azure AD goes down ALL OF THE TIME. Everything in Azure and Office 365 relies on Azure AD. Somehow this is fine.<p>- One minute, your VM will take two minutes to create. Another minute, it will take 45. You have no way of knowing beforehand.<p>- Literally EVERYTHING about Azure ARM. You will not get nested templates right. Just give in.<p>- Try using Azure DevOps via CLI. You will love Jira more quickly than you thought possible.

This isn&#x27;t even going into the terrible security record Azure has had in the past two years. The only major cloud provider with cross-tenant security vulnerabilities, and tons of them at that!

Wouldn&#x27;t you be able to do a similar list for any given provider, given sufficient motivation and rage? Or do you think Azure is distinct

I&#x27;m so glad I use AWS instead. Oh no wait. 200 different shits.

The UX, latency and API design consistency were absolutely terrible when I was forced to use Azure

Their APIs are not very reliable and getting proper support takes ages even though you have the correlation ID in hand and the employer spends millions of dollars every month on Azure cloud resources.<p>The Azure portal is terrible. If I need to check something across our 5000+ subscriptions looking for a resource is an absolute chore. The way opening things expands and scrolls horizontally pisses me off.<p>Functions are the worst thing I always had to deal with. It&#x27;s weird... it&#x27;s some kind of .net runtime running somewhere. Most if not ALL Function documentation revolves around clickety click bullshit with VSCode. Say you want to provision with terraform you need to pack a zip file with the exact file structure explained from instructions buried among 300 screenshots of VSCode guides. Its also a pain in the ass to troubleshoot.

Security is a paid feature. They consider logs and critical security features extra addons. Granted other providers to some extent do the same but it is ridiculous with Azure. But the UI is much more pleasant to use than amazon or gcp which hardly makes up for their other failings.<p>There is this terrible IT thing where companies want to use one vendor for as many things as possible. MS really shines there by tying in M365, Azure and AD&#x2F;Entra Id together. Outside of networking, that&#x27;s like 90% of IT. And there are a ton of people that made their careers out of MS expertise. This is why Azure is king with big corporations.

Concur with #200. My number 1 issue with all of Microsoft&#x27;s cloud offerings, especially Power Platform, is how difficult they make it for developers to get things done in large organizations.<p>Every tutorial and piece of documentation seems to assume you are an administrator in your tenant, and if you aren&#x27;t, good luck figuring out who administers the particular combination of functionality you&#x27;re fighting today.<p>Note that the problem here isn&#x27;t the organisation&#x27;s controls, it&#x27;s the complete lack of discoverability of process, and integration into those processes, that is exhausting. Even a hyperlink into a templated SharePoint list with admin distribution lists as required info to activate a policy would be a game changer.<p>(Could the org maintain a central repo of this information? In theory. In practice it will grow stale as people&#x2F;features come and go. Azure knows who administers what, and who flipped what policies on, and can tie process back to those policies correctly.)

My favourite Azureisms:<p>Begging and pleading for spot quota, being repeatedly told it&#x27;s unavailable because the region is full, <i>while the spot price is at the minimum and has been for months</i><p>Having quota silently removed because we weren&#x27;t using it for two weeks, then having to resume begging for months to get it back.<p>Flat out refusal to let me pay by card on a new subscription - bank transfer only - on the same account as other subscriptions paying 10k&#x2F;mo bills by card.

To use the Mastodon web application, please enable JavaScript. Alternatively, try one of the native apps for Mastodon for your platform.

That&#x27;s funny, I used to keep a similar blog on my experience on Microsoft&#x27;s Cloud. On Thumblr instead of Mastodon. Precously submitted to HN: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=12788098">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=12788098</a>

I am still miffed that they renamed Azure AD to Entra ID. Definitely not a needless and confusing change.

Bicep might be a better option to do IAC on azure.

There is a lot to complain about on Azure.<p>But a lot of his posts are wrong (he just could not figure it out - a documentation problem likely) or complaining not about Azure, but Terraform.
