    Hi tarun k

    The 'azure' meta-package has been deprecated since version 5.0.0 and and isn't installable anymore as a single bundle.

    Identify which services or SDKs you're planning to use (e.g., Azure Storage, Key Vault, Cosmos DB, etc.) and install the specific packages for those services individually. For example:

    pip install azure-storage-blob
    pip install azure-keyvault-secrets
    pip install azure-mgmt-compute
    

    You can find the full list of maintained Azure SDK packages here - https://pypi.org/search/?q=azure

    Additional References:

    Hope this helps!
