Cloud!

Cloud Computing

What is it?

By these words, it comes to our mind that, okay there is a Computer on a Cloud, it is bit true, but let us understand it completely.

Cloud Computing

It is simply understood as there are computers, which can be accessed remotely over the Internet and one can compute(be it: Data storage, process, manage, or any other activity) on that computer remotely.
Simply a Computer away from us, and using that Computer is known as Cloud Computing

According to Microsoft:

Simply put, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, intelligence and more—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale. You typically pay only for cloud services you use, helping lower your operating costs, run your infrastructure more efficiently, and scale as your business needs change.

Pay less with Azure

AWS is 5 times more expensive than Azure for Windows Server and SQL Server. Why run them anywhere else?

Compare the costs of running Windows Server VMs:

Other cloud service providers may claim to have similar savings to the Azure Hybrid Benefit, but you’ll need to repurchase your Windows Server license on those clouds. And only Azure offers free extended security updates for Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2.

What's being compared? *

Azure AWS
One D2 v3 Windows Server VM One m5.large Windows Server VM
US West 2 region US West (Oregon) region
744 hours/month for 12 months 744 hours/month for 12 months
Uses Azure Hybrid Benefit to pay reduced compute rate (SUSE Linux Enterprise Basic rate) for 3-year Reserved Instances. Software Assurance required. Uses Windows Server Reserved Instances rate under standard 3-year term with upfront payment.
Free Extended Security Updates in Azure for Windows Server 2008/2008 R2 virtual machines. Extended Security Updates cost is based on Windows Server Standard open NL ERP pricing in USD.

*Prices are as of October 24, 2018 and subject to change. Actual regional pricing and program discounts may apply. Actual savings may vary based on region, instance size, and performance tier.
