    That screenshot shows "Cloud Database Support", which means using the DBaaS products in AWS or Azure. For example, in AWS I can use something called RDS for MySQL, which lets me run MySQL without setting up a server. But if I'm ok with setting up servers myself on virtual machines, I can just run MySQL on them if I want. The same is true for Azure. You'll need to run Oracle on Azure VMs and you won't be able to use Azure's DBaaS product.

    I don't want to sound insulting here, but it really seems like this is something that would have been checked before you decided to migrate to Azure. Anyway, the answer is yes, you can run Oracle on Azure VMs just like you can run pretty much anything else. It is also possible, according to this blog post I just read, to integrate Oracle's own cloud infrastructure with Azure so that you're connecting from Azure to Oracle Cloud. That requires you to buy high-speed networking from both Azure and Oracle, though.
