Compare Microsoft Azure with other popular tools in the same category.
Managed cloud database provided by Microsoft Azure. It is a fully managed PaaS (Platform as a Service) database engine that handles most of the database management functions like upgrading, patching, backup and also monitoring without the involvement of users. Managed database services also take care of scalability and high availability.
There are some limitations of Azure SQL Database like There is no windows authentication on Azure SQL, No support for database mirroring and failover clustering, It doesn't support stored procedures and user-defined functions.
Azure SQL Database is always up to date, fully managed database service where we can build our application with simplicity and flexibility to meet business demands. It has hyperscale storage that adapts to changing requirements by scaling the storage capacity. It has built-in controls and intelligent threat detection that keeps the data secure. Its high availability maintains peak performance and durability with an SLA of 99.99 %
Clouds based services is good it's really helpful for the storing data and also space problem resolve with clouds. No need to use extra space for storing data.
Some features are not good that should be improved by the Microsoft that it's take free trial should be there at least 1 to 3 months so user had to understand the concept.
Microsoft Azure solve the space problem so the storage problem not face by the people and used the good service by client and easy to handle this by visiting and using.
It is having loads of functionality from sql, virtual machine, etl tools, visualization tools, and many things for which we can easily use this products
Their UI is quite difficult to understand for the fresh users. Amazon aws has simple Ui
Solving many business problems like if some organisations doesn't want to have on premise network then they can use azure or almost everything which is high in cost for on premise is available in azure
The best thing is creating pipeline for deployment and sql database is also comes with azure. And all this things makes development easy. So I prefer azure over all other tools.
If I talk about dislike then it doesn't provide functionality like server less development and I think scalability is also not up to the mark apart from that everything is fine
Microsoft azure platform provides a platform where we can host our applications. It can be web application or mobile based application. And it provides all database and deployment services
the hyperconverged infrastructure distributed in the cloud is truly a strength
the cost and the skills that are not for everyone
coordinating multiple locations in different countries with different languages just got easier
Compatibility with other technologies and easy to adapt
Pricing is little complex with own tools like power Platform
Mostly AI and ML helps in our organization for automation
Azure is fast, cheap and filled with lot of innovation.
In few areas they are still catching up with AWS which I feel shouldn't happen. Azure has lot of features which others don't have.
Azure is leader in paas implementation and I feel that's their USP.
Creating and deploying PaaS solutions, Creating VDIs, Signal R, AI/ML Builtin tools
Charging storage even if I m am not using VM where it is attached.
Scalability and reliability of the application. Flexibility for on-premise and edge-based solutions. Multi-region availability. Security features and cross-platform support
It is cost effective. In terms of storage and any on premises infrastructure that any company is having, it is way more affordable than setting up an on premises infra.
It's management. Needs an expert to manage its platform as well as for setting up the whole environment it is tough for the beginners to handle the environment. Plus needs a patch management expertise well.
It is cost effective in comparison with setting up an on premises infrastructure. Plus very much useful as it is highly scalable plus redundant data centers. And high data security as well.
Azure provide various services and help us in hosting various servers. The azure active directory is also being used along with Microsoft 365. It provides us on demand compute.
It is not as popular as AWS, some services still need further refinements. The pay as you go Services are high for some services than other cloud providers. Azure functions can be further improved.
It is providing the hosted datacenter services with all cloud benefits like pay as you go. It also help in consolidating the services and help to migrate them to PAAS.
The flexibility and userfriendly windows
A lack of Opensource(some) availability in the marketplace.
Everything related to on-premises headaches and cost optiization.
Azure provide multiple infrastructure as a service along with platform and software as a service. It made cloud economical and secure to use for the industry and migration of workload.
Microsoft pricing is still high than other cloud and integration out of the box can still be approved. The automation arm can be better in implementation also in the cloud
We are using azure for hosting our servers and providing vmware horizon infra to azure. We are also using for providing active directory services which make it very easy to use.
The interface, services like databricks, data factory, adls. All are helping organizations save cost and analyse their data without thinking anything about maintaining the infrastructure which just makes their life easier.
Nothing as such. I found it great in every manner. Cannot think of any shortcomings or dislikes till today. It keeps on updating and improving with times which is great
Data acquisition, data transformation and preprocessing of Big Data coming from multiple sources whether structured or not for analysis is very conveniently solved by Azure.
Also for Biztalk applications, it is the best cloud.
Costing system should be more effective in compare to AWS cloud
Here I am not having much exposure.
You get the Microsoft PowerBI as well along with various producivity tools such as DevOps
The overall Azure environment is veryvast and consultants are needed to help with Optimization
Its helping us with our remote desktop need and shared productivity through its MS Dyanmics and O365 integration
it is Cost effecive, and it supports dara security.
It requires management and also platform expertize is also required
the bandwidth cost is less from the organization perspective. integrated delivery pipeline. Yes more productive.
It is the best cloud computing service ever, for storage and networking.
I don't think there are any dislikes in Microsoft azure.
It solve infrastructure-related problem easily and effectively with the decent pricing
the Content and insight in detailed to get insight in the course.
Not anything specific I found during the course
It's an amazing platform with flexibility and scalability.
Automatic backup, from anywhere access..
Its very expensive compared to local database.
Ms SQL database related all requirements satisfies
Scalability, Cost-efficiency,rapid deployment and some more.
The complexity of interface is higher than expected for a normal user.
Learning Cloud Computing. It will help me grab the role in cloud computing field.
Easy to learn.easy to process.The best part is to navigate easy.
Nothing. But if have free certification on this is also a good thing.
Every thing is ok
I like the ML deployment platform as it is too easy to do and fast.
I don't have anything as such to dislike yet.
Deployment of ML algorithms through Azure is too beneficial for the data scientist like me
Segregation of products into categories Serverless offering storage offering compute offering
Nothing, I really like azure and look forward to use it more and more.
We used azure search to crawl a webpage and used cosmosdb
Microsoft Azure is providing one of the best reliable services across which is so easy to use. Tools like SQL database migration and Docker is very helpful to use on Azure. It is reliable and easy to use which makes Azure stands out as one of the best services among its competitors.
There is no such thing that we regret using Microsoft Azure. Everything works so smoothly and saves a lot of time. Improving customer services a little bit can be a great achievement for the product.
Microsoft Azure helps in scaling up the product and services which helps in saving a lot of manual efforts and we are not facing any downtime after using Microsoft Azure and ultimately business performance increases rapidly.
It makes the deployment easier and provides better control. Love using the flexibility it offers.
Nothing there to dislike about it. It's quite good.
It solves most of our scalibity and reliability issues.
User friendliness, documentation, easy to learn, support to lot of data sources and standalone applications. I have used data factory, datalake gen2, logic app, VM etc
I haven't used any other cloud so can't say much about downsides. Whatever i used is awesome..one suggestion is that if you can improve your support service then it would be far ahead because sometimes it takes almost 3 months to resolve a support ticket
The major problem is to provide a solution to store your data centrally so that we can access it from anywhere. I am storing data in datalake coming from AWS S3 bucket, open air, Jira and many more.
You don't even have to worry about upkeep
Need to update the OS and need to install AV agent
An Azure virtual machine provides us an on-demand compute without the need to pay ahead
-Flexibility -One-stop shop for all Enterprize needs - As a SI the kind of support and Credits provided that help democratize the technology
Continuously changing license models & for a SI , having a set of GSI rule the technology spear reduces the competitive edge a small vendor or Service provider would have bought
Propagation of Open Source technology that will help organizations reduce the TCO for cloud implementations.Enablement of a specific platform and MVP credits given for new innovation on the platform is great
Flexible and easy to work on and knowledge
Information is easy to get and review for my knowledge
AI and ML and Data Analyticals to increase services
There was an incident with managed mongodb service. Microsoft support team was available for call on very short notice to help us
I haven't encountered any issue during my tenure
Their offering includes wide variety of managed services
