"One of the best database services available in the market!"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

Use and pay as per your services demand is one of the best aspects of using this database. Don't need to make any upfront commitment, and we can deprecate or reduce the instances of work demands less. Easy to scale up, and scale down- flexibility is the key to its success.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

Hope we could be shown reminders for rate limit for our usage at periodic intervals of that has not been put and then also periodic reminders to revise them otherwise if one forgets that, the costs could be very astronomical. Why depend on the firm, put in these reminders and allow small businesses to also explore your platform.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing data of thousands of users utilising our platform- maintaining their details, their actions- all vendor related, customer related, other stakeholders related information including their actions help with easy functioning of overall product. Audits for incident management too becomes easy and helps with identification of root cause of the issue.

"DBaaS is best for current database solutions scenario"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

DBaaS is best when you are trying to onboard on database services its combination of cloud services and better that regular RDBMS the best thing is its cost efficient with high scalability and advance security metrices for data and applications

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

Limited control on database like we have full control on RDBMS but in this case we depend on solution provider of DBaaS. Security is compromised at one level because we outsource our data via third party and in worst case scenario if third party got cheated and data is leaked it will impact us also

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

DBaaS provides 24*7 support if we got stuck in qny issues the professionals are there to resolve major issues like perfomance issues and stability issues. Yes, it increases the productivity because of lot of automation

"Best Cloud Database"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

Microsoft Azure Databases provide the ability to use as needed, it's scalable and avoids buying bundles more than I need. and it's online 24/7 noway database has gone down.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

The limitation of editing, some times when we have legacy software that needs some specific setting we could do it in the on-premise version, but on the cloud version er didn't.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

Microsoft Azure Databases provide a high level of availability that is very expensive if I need to build the same infrastructure on the host, especially when we have a small database volume.

"Database sketch"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

I like DBaaS for the high level configurations which makes easier to interact with the application, mainly automatic storage increase option, storing of data in another region and zones.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

I dislike the connectivity configuration options which is not available easily to connect, not having all database engines, not having security insights in DB UI.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

The high availability (HA) option makes us to overcome the failover scenarios, and also auto storage increase will overcome when the database storage exceeds the limit.
