Microsoft Azure Management

Azure Managed Applications

Azure Managed Applications lets you build, manage, and deliver solutions via the Azure Marketplace or Service Catalog. It handles the lifecycle of these managed offerings, streamlining how vendors package and distribute their software directly within the Azure ecosystem. This approach simplifies the operational overhead for delivering complex solutions to customers without requiring them to manage the underlying infrastructure themselves.

This service suits vendors looking to monetize software through Azure’s established distribution channels. However, it operates strictly on a pay-as-you-go model with no free tier available. You must budget for costs from day one, as there is no zero-cost entry point to test or prototype your managed application before committing to the billing structure.
