In a nutshell, you can buy your Red Hat machines as a VM directly from the Azure market place. The monthly fees include the Red Hat subscription and support as well as the VM to host the server. There are a few flavors available including a "micro" footprint server.
SUSE has been available in Azure for quite some time, now Red Hat is officially available.
Note that this is really intended for businesses looking for fully supported solutions. It's not really suited to hobbyists looking for inexpensive DIY.
