Azure Data Platform

The Azure Data Platform allows you to quickly spin up an end-to-end best practice environment that connects the various Azure Data Services resources together so that you can quickly and securely create ETL jobs using Data Factory, Databricks, Synapse, Purview, Data Lake, etc.

Superseded in July 2022

This data platform was retired from usage by Telstra Purple at the start of July 2022 due to improvements made by Microsoft on their Cloud Adoption Framework. Check out the following links before deciding to use this platform:
