Azure & "CentOS based" Compute node

Those are just random third party images.

That's what I was thinking too. I did read an article where you could upload your own image/VHD file and create a VM from that file. But that seems like a really unnecessary process just to get a basic Linux box running on their platform.

In the past we just selected CentOS. Selection screen looking nothing like that.

Easy answer, though, is don't use Azure. Why are you testing there?

I have some credits, and wanted to see what is available. Just personal/lab stuff.

Makes sense. Although I'd avoid it in production so not sure what the lab value would be.
But in the past CentOS was there as a direct option. We used it and have customer still using it.

I like to poke around Azure from time to time in order to keep up to date in regards to what is available on that platform . As you know, things change so rapidly in the cloud space, that it's easy to become unaware of what is actually available.

I wonder if MS will offer a base image again in the future with their new "commitment to Linux" claim.

Their commitment was never to CentOS. Ubuntu and Suse.

Ahh, missed that detail.
