12-12: Consider adjusting heading formatting for clarity.
To match the style of other beta sections (e.g., Iceberg topics: beta), you might reformat this to:

=== Iceberg topics: Azure (beta)

This small tweak improves readability and ensures consistency across headings.

---

14-14: Standardize link text for Iceberg integration.
The link text here is [Iceberg topics], whereas earlier sections use [Iceberg integration for Redpanda]. Aligning the phrasing will help users recognize it's the same feature set. For example:

xref:manage:iceberg/about-iceberg-topics.adoc[Iceberg integration for Redpanda] are now supported on BYOC clusters in Azure.
