This guide shows you how to programmatically perform common service management tasks from Python. The **ServiceManagementService** class in the [Azure SDK for Python](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python) supports programmatic access to much of the service management-related functionality that is available in the [Azure portal]. You can use this functionality to create, update, and delete cloud services, deployments, data management services, and virtual machines. This functionality can be useful in building applications that need programmatic access to service management.

The Azure SDK for Python wraps the [Service Management API][svc-mgmt-rest-api], which is a REST API. All API operations are performed over TLS and mutually authenticated by using X.509 v3 certificates. The management service can be accessed from within a service running in Azure. It also can be accessed directly over the Internet from any application that can send an HTTPS request and receive an HTTPS response.

Azure provides three compute models for running applications: [Web Apps feature in Azure App Service][execution model-web sites], [Azure Virtual Machines][execution model-vms], and [Azure Cloud Services][execution model-cloud services]. All three models support Python. Cloud Services, which include web and worker roles, provide *Platform as a Service (PaaS)*. Within a cloud service, a web role provides a dedicated Internet Information Services (IIS) web server to host front end web applications, while a worker role can run asynchronous, long-running, or perpetual tasks independent of user interaction or input.

The first task (**PrepPython.ps1**) downloads and installs the Python runtime. The second task (**PipInstaller.ps1**) runs pip to install any dependencies you may have.
