Is there any way to detect, in general, if your code is executing on an Azure or Amazon virtual machine. I am not referring to some sort of web or worker role in particular, I mean given any executable, is there anything that resolves that machine to a cloud VM - for example under Azure there is no domain so i cannot simply rely on a domain name.

You can use a metadata endpoint for Azure VMs as well:
Invoke-RestMethod -Headers @{"Metadata"="true"} -Method GET -Proxy $Null -Uri "http://169.254.169.254/metadata/instance?api-version=2021-02-01" | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 64
