# Gazelle

> A self-service Azure platform that provisions and governs cloud environments for application teams — with no fixed costs, no manual operations, and no unapproved resources.

## What it does

Gazelle automates the full lifecycle of Azure landing zones: provisioning isolated environments, enforcing security policy, managing costs, and decommissioning — all through code and pull requests.

## How it works

Application teams register a profile, request landing zones, and manage them via PRs. The platform enforces guardrails (policy, RBAC, networking, telemetry) automatically. No human touch is needed after initial bootstrap.

## Principles

- Everything is consumption-based — no flat costs
- Code is the only path to production
- App teams are self-sufficient inside platform boundaries
- All Azure resources must be explicitly approved before use
