Problem

Describe your experience with Azure and cloud-native applications.

Discuss the Azure services, deployment patterns, and engineering practices you have used to build, operate, and scale cloud-native data pipelines. Cover batch and streaming ingestion, orchestration, storage, transformation, security, observability, reliability, and infrastructure as code. Be specific about trade-offs between services such as Azure Data Factory, Azure Event Hubs, Azure Databricks, ADLS Gen2, Azure Synapse, Azure Functions, and AKS. Explain one practical implementation, including how you handled failures, schema changes, testing, deployment, and cost control.
