bonjour

Selon la structure où elle exerce, le fait qu’elle soit rattachée à un service ou à une personne, ses activités peuvent varier et répondre à des exigences diverses. D’une façon générale

Amazon’s AWS has a range of offerings that fall under IaaS, and each of these is categorized into four classes:

  • content delivery and storage,
  • compute,
  • networking, and
  • database.

No matter which IaaS offering you get, you will be using Amazon’s identity and security services such as AWS CloudHSM’s key storage service and Amazon’s own Active Directory.  Not only that, but AWS offerings also have a range of management tools that users can use, including AWS Config, AWS Cloudtrail, and Cloudwatch.

Azure, on the other hand, also has four classes of offerings:

  • Data management and databases,
  • compute,
  • networking, and
  • performance.

Security and management tools include Active Directory Federation Services, Azure Active Directory, Multi-Factor Auth, among others, as well as a range of integrations for Azure monotoring and performance tweaks.

On a per feature basis, you will find that most of all features offered on Azure have a corresponding or similar feature on AWS.  And while it will be quite difficult to come up with an exhaustive features list, you might find it interesting that some Azure services have no AWS equivalent. These include the Azure Visual Studio Online, Azure Site Recovery, Azure Event Hubs, and Azure Scheduler.  However, it seems that AWS is trying to close the gap.  For instance, AWS now offers AWS Lambda on preview to counter Azure’s Logic Apps.

At the end, it wouldn't matter to the companies whether they are on AWS or Azure. Cost would be the main factor. Both provide same services.

I hope Azure.

Most of the companies will use microsoft products. So if we use Azure, microsoft will provide a offer on cloud resources. So billing will be lesser

Azure is important for companies because

Azure provides stronger PaaS capabilities which is important piece of Cloud infrastructure today and also it is cheaper.

Azure’s compatibility with the .Net programming language is one of the most useful benefits.

It has been designed based on Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) which is an industry leading assurance process

It has Hybrid solutions for Seamless Cloud Connectivity 

It brings to the table an integrated environment for developing, testing, and deploying Cloud apps.
