It mostly runs. An Azure-optimized HyperV build is the primary hypervisor I think, but I’d wager that most customer VMs on Azure are running Linux. However, if you want to run Windows in the cloud, it’s a decent option.
My experience with Azure has been less than stellar. They have good API documentation, but tooling & core compute is a bit janky. The web UI is also a throwback to a past era, but you can’t really avoid it when debugging issues which you have to do often during development. Then the developers want to forget all about it … which is a problem when something inevitably breaks.
