Microsoft Azure Stack is a cloud-optimized hybrid application platform which employs a collection of Microsoft Azure technologies that let you offer a rich, self-service, multi-tenant cloud, consistent with the Microsoft Azure experience. It gives you the power of Azure and the control of a datacenter. Microsoft Azure Stack POC (Proof of concept) is an environment for learning about Azure Stack that lets you deploy all required components on a single physical machine.
