> I had a list at one point, not much VPC and IAM Roles, but routing tables, CIDR blocks, NAT Gateways Just curious - how is the developer experience different on Azure? There are different types of developers. Some like to have full control and end up building their own cloud infrastructure while others like to have no control and go with something like Heroku (or maybe Azure, but I'm not too familiar with that hence my question).

To set up basic App Services, Azure Functions, Web Jobs and the few other bits that I have been involved with, I have needed to do zero networking or permissions configuration.

Perhaps this is severely less secure by default, but it sure does make for a lower barrier to entry, and for reduced distraction from app development.

I also liked Heroku quite well. Felt at one point like I needed to move to Azure for some technical reason but right now, I can't recall the reason.

Originally in AWS I wanted to send emails from within a Lambda Function, and doing so required me to rework my networking configuration that I felt like I had barely gotten running AND pay ~$30/mo for some additional required networking service. IP Gateway or NAT Gateway or some other such. That was what finally ran me off from AWS.
