I'm not really surprised.

Azure isn't that different from AWS (once you used one cloud, you can pretty much port the fundamentals to another cloud). Sure some components have different names and you might have to use a different language, but it should not be a challenge for any engineer.

The Microsoft Stack is also... not that exotic. C# and Java are both pretty similar, and Microsoft is where TypeScript appeared. And they adopted Git as well in the last decade.

I remember a few years ago a lot of devs preferring C# but who didn't want to commit to Windows Server. With .NET now being cross platform and having good Linux support, I wouldn't be surprised to see more tech company using it.
