Cool!
Forgive me, but what is the advantage of buying Github enterprise and then having it hosted in Azure? I was under the impression that most enterprise customers were interested in self hosting.

"Self hosting" increasingly means "inside my hacked-together cloud, not yours"
Influencing factors can be regulatory, policy, SLA, that sort of thing. A prior employer had a blanket policy against intellectual property in a public service no matter the security, for example. GitHub has reliability issues lately as well.
One practical thing I've heard is that it's really easy to accidentally make a repo public on GitHub (I agree).
With hosted Github you have no choice - data will presumably live on mainland US. With Azure/AWS/whatever, you can host your data in the most suitable location (always worth checking the contracts though)
