Azure
The Azure Enterprise Baseline is a next-phase product. The offerings note lists it under BuiltForProd Baseline as a production-ready Azure foundation, and places it, with the GCP Baseline and further blueprints, in the phase after the AWS products' go-to-market. It does not ship today.
What exists now
The Azure Baseline set on this site holds sample placeholder pages so the navigation, the sign-in gate and the placeholder mechanism can be seen working. Those pages are public, never indexed by search engines, and carry a banner saying they are samples. They will be replaced by the real documentation when the product ships.
What it will mirror
The Azure documentation will follow the structure of the AWS offering: a Baseline set with a public overview and gated architecture pages, and a set per blueprint. The concepts that the AWS Baseline is built on are cloud-neutral and already documented here:
- a landing zone of single-purpose accounts or subscriptions as the unit of isolation (landing zones);
- hub-and-spoke networking with one address plan (hub-and-spoke networking);
- infrastructure as code with units and stacks, planned on every pull request and applied on merge (Terragrunt units and stacks);
- the eight pillars of the BuiltForProd Standard, which every baseline is measured against regardless of cloud.
BuiltForProd positions itself around production engineering rather than one cloud, and the brand explicitly refuses to become synonymous with AWS consulting. Azure is the second cloud that positioning commits to.
What is not stated
No date, price, service list or account layout for the Azure Baseline appears in the sources this site is written from, so none is given here. The roadmap page states exactly what is committed. When the Azure Baseline ships, the Baseline product page will list it alongside AWS with its deployment tiers.
