Some of the most popular names in public cloud services are Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. So, which one for you is right? Let’s talk about what each provider brings to the cloud table and the key differences between them to help you take the decision.
Integration
AWS: Amazon has become better linked with the open source community, so that more open source integrations such as Jenkins and GitHub are available through this platform. Linux servers are also friendlier.
AZURE: Azure provides native support for such applications if you use Windows developer software such as VBS, SQL server, and Active Directory. For example, you need to currently log in Office 365 or Azure SQL instances with the same AD accounts. For .net apps, Azure is fantastic too. Microsoft hasn’t always followed the paradigm with respect to open source, but Azure catches up – now companies can run Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Apache Hadoop clusters in Azure.
Computing Power
AWS: Users choose size, power, memory capacity and number of video machines and select from various regions and areas for the launch.
AZURE: Azure users choose the machine-equivalent Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) to build a VM. Microsoft, the consumer or a third party may pre-configure VHD. The number of cores and the memory should be specified by the user.
Storage
AWS: AWS is provided with temporary storage when an instance is started and removed once it’s is complete. You can have block storage, which can be separate or attached to a case, just as hard disks. S3 provides database storage, and Glacier data archiving facilities. This supports relational, NoSQL, and big data databases.
AZURE: Azure provides temporary D drive storage, Page Blobs for file storage of VMs. Block Blobs and files are also used to store objects. Azure supports relational databases; Azure Table and Azure HDInsight NoSQL and the big data. It also provides recovery platform, import export and azure backup for further archiving and recovery.
Network
AWS: Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is supported by Amazon so that users can build independent networks in the cloud. A user can build sub-networks, tables of path, private IP addresses and network gates in the VPC.
AZURE: Microsoft provides Virtual Network (VNET), which allows users to build remote and sub-networks, route tables, specific IP address ranges and network gateway. Both companies offer solutions to extend the cloud and firewall option to the on-site data center.
Orchestration and containers
AWS: Amazon is continuously investing in satisfying requests for new services, which results in more mature analytical services. (ex AWS Elastic Map Reduction Hadoop Support). They have added tools and features for machine learning for IoT and allow customers to build mobile apps or create high- performance computer environments according to their specific needs. It also gives Docker support.
AZURE: Microsoft also has a good record of meeting new demand, and offers support from Hadoop to Azure HDInsight. The 2016 Windows Server includes Docker functionality for Windows and Hyper-V containers alike. The platform is able to run Windows or Linux containers which makes Amazon a great competitor.
User Friendly
AWS: More functionality and configurations are available from Amazon, if you want to know the system. AWS provides lots of support and benefits IT sector, versatility and configuration, and allows many integrations from third parties. Yet AWS has a curve of learning.
AZURE: Azure would be easier to use out of the box if you are a Windows admin because it is a Windows platform that needs nothing new to understand. Windows servers with cloud instances can be integrated easily on the screen to create a hybrid environment. Azure works well with software such as SQL and Active Directory.
Conclusion
AWS and Azure have several similar features, such that one cloud service doesn’t automatically have to be “better” or “better” than the other. All depends on what the business wants. Whatever service you decide to contact, you can benefit from an over-the-top cloud solution to meet your business needs.
