What is Azure Batch?

Azure Batch is a service that manages the workload of applications. It is designed to take the workload that is greater than the capability of your application, and divide it between a number of nodes - virtual machines (VMs) - that can each run your application and perform different parts of the workload in parallel.

What is Azure Data Factory?

Azure Data Factory is a cloud-based data integration service. It does not store data itself, but allows you to create and monitor automated workflows that collect, integrate, and (to some extent) transform large volumes of data from disparate sources, and pass them on to other services that can store, transform, analyse and use the data.
