# Microsoft Azure

A cloud computing platform selling infrastructure, AI services, and developer tools to frontend, platform, and AI teams.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Azure sells the same cloud infrastructure for building, deploying, and scaling AI-powered web applications as Vercel, and a buyer shortlisting Vercel would evaluate Azure for the same workload.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> AI apps and agents

> Cloud Computing Services | Microsoft Azure

> Microsoft Foundry
