Promotes clear, logical structures preventing impractical configurations and offers seamless integration

Pros

"The customer service and support are very good. When we raise a ticket, we quickly get feedback or someone assigned to help us identify the problem, which, 90% of the time, was on our end. I'm very happy with the support they provide."

Cons

"The only thing is regarding the management of multi-cloud environments. That's not really possible. "

Offers integrated version control in building models which obviates the need to manage different versions of my models manually

Pros

"Azure offers broad compatibility with both structured and unstructured data. For example, we use PostgreSQL for storing Azure's official data and manage various types of data, including tabular and image data, accommodating the storage of all data types we handle. So, in many ways, Azure simplified the data storage and management needs."

Cons

"The main issue is the lack of notifications for updates. Processes for certain operations, like connecting to Git repositories, have changed without sufficient communication. A system to announce or update users about these changes would be very helpful."

Provides good security and compliance tools and is useful for handling large data

Pros

"The solution is useful for handling large amounts of data."

Cons

Accommodates all production workloads, including development, and mission-critical applications and provides a strong baseline for compliance with industry standards and government regulations

Pros

"It's very scalable. We can scale up to 80-85% without issues. "

Cons

" I don't understand why we spend so much time and money on Azure when Microsoft relies on third-party companies for support in the CSP model. I don't know how the support model works within Microsoft, but giving it to poor-performing third-party companies is not ideal. "

Provides business continuity and disaster recovery features

Pros

"Microsoft Azure provides many critical features, such as business continuity and disaster recovery, which come embedded out of the box. From my point of view, managing the whole infrastructure, these features have been very beneficial. The support is also amazing, with someone allocated to assist within a few minutes. "
