A simple question:
What are some other endpoints for the Custom Vision service, apart from southcentralus?
I have had no luck in asking Azure support directly.
As of today, only southcentralus is available.
The service being in preview, it will certainly be available in other regions once released.
Custom Vision is now "Generally Available" from many different Azure Regions. See here for the growing list:

I'm coming from Google Cloud Platform, and have been used to creating service agents, essentially user accounts to grant permissions/access that I specify to non human actors, so they can view/modify resources/attributes. I have been exploring Azure all evening and can't quite find something similar to that. Can anyone suggest Azure services or keywords I should do some reading on so I figure out how to implement similar identity and access in Azure?
You'll want to start off by looking at Azure Active Directory Service Principals and Application Registrations. These are the rough equivalent to Service Accounts. You'll also want to research Managed Service Identities, which are a way to simplify the use of Applications and Service Principals. You can start with this page and keep linking from there.
This medium article can give you a good comparison circa 2020.
Team,
I have a complete running cloud service application upgraded to latest Azure SDK version and unfortunately need to dump this into a CSP subscription. But I came to know that Azure CSP supports only the Azure Resource Manager model, the cloud service is a classic deployment model. So we cannot create a cloud service within a CSP subscription.
Is there any other alternative within Azure CSP to using "cloud service" so that we can migrate with minimal changes. Please help
Firstly, here are some good reads on Microsoft Docs to help comparing the options available and make decisions based on your requirements:
(I mean requirements like Hosting features, Service Limits, 3rd party software installation and RDP access is required or not, Network isolation to a separate VNET is required or not, Cost considerations, minimum SLA, Regions available, instant deployment and auto-scaling, state management etc.):
Azure App Service, Virtual Machines, Service Fabric, and Cloud Services comparison
Decision tree for Azure compute services (This one covers a big spectrum.. simple virtual machines, Batch, Functions, Containers, AKS, ServiceFabric)
Criteria for choosing an Azure Compute Service
Also know that when looking for alternatives, it's not uncommon to make use of multiple compute or other Azure service options by breaking up an older solution into parts at the time of such migration (for e.g. A serverless compute option like Azure Function + Service Fabric + something else if needed).
Generally speaking (and without knowing much about your application from your question currently), Azure App Service and Service Fabric could be considerations IMHO when migrating from an existing Cloud Service, but this is exactly where detailed requirements help you in decision making.
On a side note, here is a list of Azure Services available in CSP - Available Azure services in Azure CSP
I'm planning to showcase exciting end user use-cases in AzureStack to potential customers.
This is an idea exploration.
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/directory/
I expect Microsoft Azure Cognitive services to be available on AzureStack for Enterprise use-cases.
From my initial search on AzureStack Marketplace items from Azure I could not find Cognitive Services for AzureStack. What is the roadmap to bring these services to AzureStack in the future?

Please help. Thanks.
All APIs on cognitive services here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/directory/ are on Azure. In fact, you buy access keys for these APIs from Azure portal: https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.CognitiveServicesBingSearch-v7.
On this blog post they announced "basic" pricing for azure vms. I'm currently using "extra small" for my cloud service web/worker roles in my project. For these types of vms, would this new basic tier be available? I'm not seeing it in the VS properties area for these roles, is it just not activated yet or needs a custom change in the config file?
So a few things with this thing:
As mentioned in the blog post, this will be available from 3rd of April (i.e. today). I'm guessing you should see it after Scott Guthrie's keynote during BUILD conference today.
More importantly, this is only applicable for Windows Azure Virtual Machines i.e. IaaS stuff and not for Windows Azure Cloud Services.
We have a complex Azure setup...cloud services, websites, storage accounts, VM's...the whole shebang.
We have custom domains to all of these things and they work great, but I can't find any documentation on setting up an A record or a CNAME to work with their Service Bus functionality.
Anyone know if this is possible?
David,
Thank you for sharing your requirement. Using custom domains with Windows Azure Service Bus is not currently supported. However, it is among the features that the Service Bus team is considering enabling in the near future. We'll have further information on this when the feature is available for use.
