Azure's Postgresql managed database handles all that (except off-hours
support) for you, and there's much less off-hours support required (at
least there was with AWS RDS Postgresql, so pressuming so with Azure, too).

Of course, OP just mentioned an Azure VM, so he'd have to do all that
himself.

Using the Azure Postgresql managed database still means you'll have to
think about archiving data, and properly configuring PG (mainly autovacuum
parameters).
